A major search and rescue mission was launched in the Belfast Lough area late on Saturday night. Multiple emergency services are still at the scene through the night and into Sunday morning.
It comes amid unconfirmed reports that a person has fallen overboard from a Stena Line ferry. On social media, the Lagan Search & Rescue team confirmed in a post at around 10.30pm that it was on a callout.
Online Boat and aircraft trackers show that an RNLI lifeboat, a Pilot Boat, the Lagan Search and Rescue vessel and harbour police boat appear to be searching an area close to Green Island. A Rescue 199 helicopter from Prestwick in Scotland also appears to be involved in the operation.
In a short statement issued shortly before 2am on Sunday morning, the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) said: "Police and other emergency services are currently involved in an ongoing search of the Belfast Lough area. There are no further details at this time and we are asking members of the public to avoid the area."
We'll bring you more details as we get them in the blog below.
