The incident occurred at a property in Creevagh Heights, where damage was caused to the house during what has been described as a targeted attack.

No serious injuries have been reported, but the attack has left residents shaken.
Local Derry City and Strabane District Council councillor Emma McGinley condemned the incident, describing it as deeply concerning for the local area.

She called for those responsible to be brought to justice and urged anyone with information to come forward.
The Creggan area has previously experienced incidents of disorder and violence, and community representatives have repeatedly highlighted the need for calm and stability.
