Police are investigating a report that two masked men armed with guns forced their way into a house in the Ballymagroarty area of Derry last night.
The incident occurred at Merriman Court shortly after 10.00pm.
The house was occupied at the time by a woman and her children.
The men left after being told a man they asked for by name was not in the house.
No shots were fired and no one was injured in the incident.
A PSNI spokesman said the men were wearing dark hooded tops and ran off afterwards.
He added a motive had not been established “at this stage.”
He said police are keen to hear from anyone who saw the two men, or vehicles, in the area.
He added: “Anyone with information is asked to call police on the 101 non-emergency number, or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
