A woman's been arrested in connection with the attempted murder of Police officers in West Belfast in 2015.
Up to eight shots were fired at a PSNI Vehicle in Rossnareen Avenue on the 26th of November.
Two officers were in the vehicle at the time and were left badly shaken.
The 20 year old suspect was arrested in Newry this morning after two properties were searched.
She's been taken to musgrave police station for Questioning.
At the time police described the shooting as a "mindless, reckless attempt to kill officers".
Officers were on patrol in the area after a man was critically injured in an attack one week previous.
He's been shot in the head whilst sitting in his car on the same street.
Chief Superintendant Nigel Grimshaw said the attack was most likely carried out by opportunistic violent dissident republicans.
