Three men were taken to King Edward VII Memorial Hospital this morning after a gunman opened fire on Court Street.

Sources claimed a car stopped in the middle of Court Street at the junction with Elliott Street and a man jumped out and began firing at a group of men.

The incident occurred shortly after 9 a.m.

The shooting comes less than 24 hours after a shooting in the St. Monica's Road and another one shortly after on Curving Avenue, yesterday afternoon.

One man died and another is in hospital following Friday's incidents. Two men were arrested a short time afterward.

This morning, armed Police quickly responded to the report of shooting and cordoned off Court Street from the crest of Till's Hill south to the junction with Dundonald.

A full report is expected from Police Media Relations spokesperson shortly.
