Three people have escaped injury in a gun attack on a house in Coleraine.

A shot was fired at the property in Laburnum Place at around 10.25pm last night, smashing a window.

Police said two women and a man were in the house when the shot was fired and have been left "shocked and distressed".

"This could so easily have resulted in serious injury, or worse. The actions of whoever was behind this sinister attack were beyond reckless."
