Police have been attacked with petrol bombs in the Victoria Street area of Lurgan, as they carried out searches during a hoax bomb alert on Monday.

One car was hijacked, but recovered a short time later and police say calm has now been restored.

Officers had been examining waste ground at the old Glendinning factory, amid claims that a bomb had been abandoned in the area. The alert was later found to be a hoax.

In a separate security alert in north Belfast, army bomb experts were called to deal with a suspicious package below a car close to Tennent Street police station.

In Craigavon, a suspect device was also found on the Tullygally Road.

Both those alerts were later found to be hoaxes.
