Sinn Fein's Francie Molloy condemned the attack: "This gun attack on a house in Coalisland was wrong and I condemn it utterly.
"Thankfully no one was injured in this incident but it must have been a frightening experience.
"There is no place for guns in our society and those behind this attack need to end these futile actions immediately."
