Gardaí are appealing for information on a shooting in Longford town. 

A man escaped injury in the incident, which is understood to relate to a Traveller feud. 

This day last week, at around 10.30pm, a number of shots were fired at an occupied house at Clonbalt Wood in the town. 

A window at the front of the house was damaged and a man in his 40s narrowly avoided injury. He was in the property at the time. 

Those involved left the scene in a saloon car, and shortly after, a vehicle was burnt out nearby. 

Gardaí are appealing for witnesses to come forward. They want to speak to anyone who saw this saloon car, or anyone acting suspiciously at the time. 

They are also appealing to those with dash-cam footage relevant to the ongoing investigation.
