Derry: oggetto sospetto sul parabrezza di una vettura
Suspect object found on car windscreen in Derry
A suspicious object has been found on a car windscreen at Kinnego Park in the Foyle Springs area of Londonderry.
Army bomb experts went to the area after the incident was reported at 0745 GMT this morning.
The police say 18 homes have been evacuated and the area has been cordoned off.
SDLP councillor, Mark H Durkan, said the alert had caused a great deal of angst in the community.
“To place a device on a car windscreen, where anybody could walk past and harm themselves is reckless in the extreme.” he said.
“Just what it’s supposed to achieve is beyond me.”
