Residents have been evacuated from their homes following a security alert in Craigavon this afternoon (Sunday).
Police are currently at the scene of an ongoing security alert in the Meadowbrook area.
The top end of the estate has been cordoned off as army technical officers deal with the discovery of a suspicious device.
