On Wednesday, an off-duty PSNI officer was seriously injured in a shooting that occurred in Omagh, Tyrone.
The officer, who has been named as John Caldwell, was hit multiple times at the sports club Youth Sport Omagh in front of a children's football coaching session. He is currently in a critical but stable condition.
The officer was reportedly putting footballs into the boot of his vehicle when he was approached and shot by masked men. Police officers in Northern Ireland say that the primary focus of detectives is currently on the dissident republican group the New IRA.
