Cochrane condemns East Belfast shooting

Alliance East Belfast MLA Judith Cochrane has condemned those responsible for a shooting that occurred on Lord Street Mews, off the Beersbridge Road in East Belfast at 22:40 on Wednesday night. One woman was shot multiple times, her injuries are not thought to be life threatening.

Judith Cochrane MLA said: “There is no place on our streets for gun violence. A life could have been lost last night.

“My thoughts at this time are with the woman who was shot, I hope she will be able to make a full recovery from her injuries.

“The people responsible are dangerous individuals who have no regards for the lives of other people. They must be urgently apprehended by the police to face justice before the courts. If anybody has any information about this attack then I would urge them to contact the police.”
