McGuinness set to refute ambush allegations

Martin McGuinness is reportedly set to reject allegations at the Bloody Sunday inquiry that he was involved in a botched IRA ambush on the day of the shootings and was forced to flee with a gun hidden up his shirt.

The denial relates to claims of an attempted ambush on the city's William St, where Mr McGuinness and two others hid in a house, planning to fire through the doorway on British soldiers.
