Bottiglie molotov sequestrate a West Belfast

PSNI were informed on Monday, July 6, of the youths acting suspiciously

The PSNI seized 11 petrol bombs in West Belfast after youths were spotted carrying a crate of them down the alleyway.

Officers were called by residents on Monday, July 6, after a group of 20 to 30 youths were seen carrying a crate of petrol bombs down an alleyway alongside Bog Meadow.

Inspector Alan Swann said: “Police received reports of a group of 20/30 youths in dark clothing with hoods up carrying a crate of petrol bombs and were heading towards the St James Park area . The group of males were observed walking down an alleyway which runs alongside Bog Meadow. Eleven petrol bombs were discovered and seized in the alleyway and the youths made off.

“I would like to thank the local community for the information which led to the seizure. I would also urge parents to make sure they know where their children are and what they are doing and to talk to them about the danger of getting caught up in the moment and the possible outcomes they could face if they are found committing any offence.

“I would remind young people there are consequences when you get involved in this type of behaviour. What might seem like fooling about can often result in a criminal record which can affect travel, education and employment opportunities in the future. It is really important that young people understand this.”
