A SECURITY alert in Beragh, following the finding of a suspicious object on the Dervaghroy Road, is still ongoing.
The alert began yesterday (Saturday) afternoon, mere hours after hundreds of people from the local community took part in a ‘A Walk in Solidarity’ event in Chief District Inspector John Caldwell’s name at the village in protest against his attempted murder.
“The alert is ongoing at present,” said a police spokesperson this afternoon (Sunday). “A further update will be provided when available.”
Members of the public are being asked to avoid the area.
More information to follow.
