A 30-year-old man has been arrested over a paramilitary style shooting in Newtownabbey.
The victim - who is also 30, was shot in the knee in an alley at Bawnmore Park on Friday night.
Detectives have also found that a second shot may have been fired - with the bullet striking a youth club fence.
Detective Inspector Conor McStravick said: "The 30 year old victim, who was shot in the knee in Bawnmore Park, is thankfully recovering well in hospital.
"Officers examining the scene of the shooting have discovered that a second shot may have been fired, with the bullet striking the perimeter fence at the local youth club. This shooting occurred at 7.30pm, a time when children could easily have been playing at the youth club. To my mind, this serves to underline the mindlessness and recklessness of those responsible.
"We are continuing to appeal for witnesses or anyone with information to get in touch. Please call 101, quoting reference number 1330 27/10/17."
