Detectives have arrested a man on suspicion of attempted murder in connection with shooting in North Belfast.
It's after a man in his 20s was found with a gunshot wound and facial injuries in the New Lodge road area early yesterday morning.
The suspect, 23 is still in custody as investigations continue.
Police say it's not being treated as a paramilitary-style attack.
PSNI Detective Sergeant Corrigan said: "23 year old man was arrested earlier today on suspicion of attempted murder. He remains in police custody.
"A man in his 20s was found in the New Lodge road area in the early hours of yesterday and was treated at the scene for a gun-shot wound and facial injuries, before being transferred by NIAS to hospital.
