A third man has been arrested over a shooting and arson attack in Larne.

Three children escaped injury in the incident on Brustin Brae Road earlier this month - shortly after a hijacking in CraigyHill. 

The 24-year-old's suspected of a number of offences including attempted murder and hijacking.

A spokesperson for the PSNI said: "Detectives in Larne have arrested a third man today (Tuesday 19 September) in relation to a hijacking in the Craigyhill area and an attack on a house in the Brustin Brae area of the town in the early hours of Monday 11 September. 

"The 24 year old was arrested on suspicion of a number of offences including attempted murder, hijacking, possession of an offensive weapon and criminal damage."
