A 17-year-old youth has been shot in the leg in a paramilitary-style attack in west Belfast. He has been taken to hospital, but his injuries are not thought to be life-threatening. Three men attacked the teenager close to a shop on the Whiterock Road at about 2215 BST on Monday before making off in a waiting car.
Police have appealed for anyone with information concerning the incident to contact them.

This kid is the son of a man killed during a street fight between two long-fueding families in Ballymurphy, the Devlins and the Notorantonios. One of the latter family was jailed for the murder. Violence in the street where the two families lived went on for months afterward, resulting in houses being burnt out, people injured, liftings and jail sentences. Nearly tore the heart out of the area.
