Officers have been checking CCTV footage for any additional information which could help their enquiries.

Detective Inspector Kenny Dalrymple said: “I believe this was a targeted attack, carried out in the hours of darkness, which was intended to intimidate the occupant of the house.

"Firing a gun into a house is a completely reckless act.

"Fortunately, on this occasion, no-one was injured but this type of behaviour will not be tolerated.

"I am interested in hearing from people who were out and about in the Craigneuk, Muirhouse and Shields Road areas of Wishaw between the hours of 2am and 3am on Sunday morning and may have seen something suspicious.
