A young couple and their 18-month old son escaped injury early today when shots were fired at their house in Ballymena, Co Antrim.
An RUC spokeswoman said the attack occurred shortly after 1 a.m when a shot was fired at the front door of the house on Ballymoney Road. A red vehicle was seen speeding away from the scene.
Elsewhere the RUC recovered a quantity of ammunition during a planned search in the Ballysally area of Coleraine, Co Derry today.
One man has been arrested in connection with the find.
