A 61-year-old-man arrested under the Terrorism Act by detectives investigating shots being fired in the Divis area of west Belfast on Monday, 20 May, has been released unconditionally.
The man was arrested in the Belfast area on Saturday morning on suspicion of membership of a proscribed organisation.
Detectives also conducted a search of a property in the Dunmurry area yesterday (Friday). A number of items seized were taken away for examination.
Detective Inspector Stephen Harvey said the scene at Ross Street on Monday 20 May, of a man shooting a weapon into the air, was not only shocking and reckless but also a criminal act, which was carried out by those who seek to control communities through fear of violence.
“The investigation into this incident is ongoing and police continue to appeal to anyone with information to contact police on 101 or alternatively, information can be provided anonymously by contacting the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111,” he added.
