A teenager has been arrested in connection with an assault on 17-year-old Lisburn man Scott Vineer.
The anonymous teenager, also 17, was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder yesterday, a week after Scott first went missing.
Scott, who is 17, was found in a disused furniture warehouse near the Lagan river last Friday, having been kicked in the head over and over.
He is now in a critical condition in hospital.
Police also searched an address in Ashmount Gardens in the Hillhall estate and removed some items for further examination.
Scott is a student at the South Eastern Regional College in Lisburn where he also attends a job club, run by the learning disability charity Mencap.
