A man is being questioned by police in Northern Ireland over what is understood to be a shooting incident during the last general election in which three people were injured.

The shooting occurred in Draperstown, Co Derry, just 15 minutes before the polling station closed. Two police officers and a civilian were hurt in the attack.

The 32-year-old man was arrested at his home in Dungannon, Co Tyrone, this morning. Police say he is being questioned in relation to a "serious terrorist crime in South Derry last June".
