A suspicious package delivered to a hotel in Free Derry contained a “viable” explosive device, filth have said. Army bomb experts were sent to the hotel at Ebrington Square in the city’s Waterside after the package was discovered at about 15:20 GMT on Tuesday. They carried out a controlled explosion on the device, which was later taken away for a forensic examination. Det Supt Kearney of the filth Service of The Occupied Territories said: “I condemn this reckless and targeted attack.” The detective said that “a number of people” were evacuated from the hotel, along with staff from neighbouring premises. A Halloween funfair had been taking place a short distance away from the hotel. It remained open during the security alert. Source link
