Petrol bombs have been thrown at police after a man was shot in both legs in the Bogside in Londonderry.
The man, who is in his 20s, was attacked by a gunman after a masked gang broke into a house at Meenan Square at about 22:30 BST on Tuesday.
Officers who were called to the scene were attacked by a small crowd who threw a firework and petrol bombs, police said.
Det Insp Hughes said the shooting was a violent and appalling attack . The fact those responsible thought it was acceptable to shoot in a built-up area shows the contempt they have for people in the community.
