City alert trio released
Three men arrested in north Belfast in connection with two bombs found during a three-day security alert in the area have been released unconditionally.
The men, aged 33, 34 and 38, were taken to Antrim Serious Crime Suite for questioning on Tuesday.
The first bomb – a shrapnel device – was found outside a video rental store last month following a number of anonymous telephone warnings.
The second bomb was discovered a day later after a follow-up search. It was attached to a child’s bicycle.
Earlier this week, images of the bike and of a man at the video store were released by police.
Senior Investigating Officer, Detective Chief Inspector Justyn Galloway, said the bomb made safe outside Xtra-Vision was planted in a bid to lure and kill officers.
