Man in hospital following Co Antrim assault

A 20-year-old man is in hospital after what police say was a paramilitary-style assault in Lisburn in County Antrim last night.

The man was in bed in a house at Dundrod Drive when three or four masked men entered and attacked him with an iron bar and a club studded with nails.

He had his leg, both wrists and several ribs broken, and sustained cuts to his body.
