A man has been shot in both arms and legs in a punishment-style attack in Co Donegal.
The attack happened at a rented house in Legnatraw, St Johnston, at about 10.45pm on Tuesday.
The man (39), who is originally from Derry, had been living in Co Donegal for a number of months. He was shot four times – once in each arm and each leg.
A woman (34) was in the house at the time but was not injured.
The victim was taken to Letterkenny General Hospital, where his condition is described as “stable and not life-threatening”. It is understood the attack was carried out by two armed and masked men.
A silver SUV was found abandoned a mile from the scene of the shooting, at Moness, and is being examined by Garda forensic experts.
No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack.
Gardaí are liaising with the PSNI in Derry.
Supt Vincent O’Brien has appealed for anybody who was in the area between 10.30pm and 11pm to contact them with any information they may have.
It is the second time this year a person from Derry living across the Border in Co Donegal has been targeted.
Father-of-two Andrew Allen was shot dead in Buncrana in February.
