"There can be no place for the use of guns or gangs of masked men on the streets of our city.

“All of this is in stark contrast to the good work that is going on in this community.

"I would call on anyone with information on this shooting incident to bring it forward to the PSNI."

Police confirmed two men were shot in separate locations in the estate at around 8 p.m.
