Four people have been arrested over a suspicious parcel sent to the army recruitment office in Brighton, which closed the city centre for several hours.
An explosive device was sent to the offices in Queen’s Road, Brighton, on Thursday, February 13 this year.
Devices were also sent to army recruitment offices in Oxford, Canterbury, Aldershot, Reading and Chatham, and the Queensmere shopping centre in Slough. None of them detonated.
A Police Service of Northern Island spokesman said today: “Police investigating a series of devices sent to addresses in Northern Ireland and England last year and earlier this year have arrested four people in Londonderry this morning.
“Two men aged 35 and 46, and two women aged 21 and 44, were arrested in the city and taken to the Serious Crime Suite at Antrim police station for interview.
“The investigation is being led by detectives from PSNI Serious Crime Branch who have been working in close liaison with officers from the South East Counter Terrorism Unit in England.”
More as we get it.
Police Service of Northern IRELAND, duh, not Northern “Island”.
I bet everyone they arrested was a spide.
