We understand there are strong community concerns after last night’s shocking attempted murder in north Belfast. We are aware of  inaccurate online posts regarding the victim's condition. We can confirm that the injured man remains in a serious condition in hospital.

As our investigation has progressed, we can also confirm that the man in custody is Sudanese and not Somalian, as initially believed.

This is a fast-time investigation and we will continue to provide further updates to the public in due course.
