Bomb defused at North's Dept of Agriculture

A bomb at the Stormont headquarters of Northern Ireland’s Department of Agriculture was defused today.

Army bomb disposal experts dealt with what was described by police as a “crude, anti-personnel type device” at Dundonald House on the Stormont estate.

They also removed a number of other items from the scene for further examination.

The government building was not evacuated as police managed to isolate the bomb.
