Local Sinn Fein councillor Deirdre Varsani said a large area had been cordoned off.
“It is upsetting for people here. This is such a tight-knit area and it does impact on a lot of people and unnerves a lot of people as well,” she said.
“Everybody is very concerned, but there has been a very high level of co-operation with the emergency services.
“People are just shocked. Everybody knows someone who lives here.
“The emergency services response has been exemplary.”
SDLP Mid Ulster councillor Malachy Quinn posted on social media: “Sad news coming out of Dungannon tonight”, and urged people to avoid the area on Thursday night.
