A man and four children have escaped injury in a gun attack in Londonderry.

Two shots were fired at a house on Racecourse Drive shortly after 9.30pm last night.

Police are appealing for witnesses or anyone with information to contact them.

Sinn Féin MLA Raymond McCartney has condemned the gun attack. He said:

"This attack during which shots were fired at a house in Racecourse Drive is wrong and must be condemned.

"Thankfully no one was injured in this incident but it must have been a frightening experience for those in the vicinity.

"There is no place for guns on our streets and those behind attacks need to end their war with the community."
