A missionary priest who is originally from Belfast has been shot in South Africa.
Father Kieran Creagh, who works with Aids sufferers, was attacked at the hospice he built in Johannesburg.
He is now said to be in a stable condition in hospital.
Father Creagh's brother Liam said it was a traumatic experience: 'Two men came in and over-powered the guards.
'They went up to the apartment where he stays at the hospice and they rang the bell. He thought it was a patient coming to get him.
'He opened the door and I think there was a bit of a struggle.
'They fired two shots at least. One shot hit him in one of his lungs, and it is lodged there, and the other shot went through his arm.'
