Detective inspector shot in attack leaves hospital

A senior detective targeted by dissident gunmen earlier this year has been discharged from hospital.

Detective Chief Inspector John Caldwell was shot several times at a sports centre in Omagh in February.

The Police Service of Northern Ireland confirmed he was discharged from hospital on Thursday.

A total of 15 people have been detained during the investigation into the attack on the 48-year old.

The shooting has been widely condemned by political figures from across Northern Ireland.
