Northern Ireland politicians are condemning a car bombing outside a courthouse in the city of Londonderry.
Police in Northern Ireland said Sunday they suspect Irish Republican Army dissidents were behind a car bombing outside a courthouse in the city of Londonderry. Two men in their 20s have been arrested over the attack, which caused no injuries.
Attackers hijacked a pizza delivery vehicle, loaded it with explosives and left it outside the city-center courthouse on Saturday evening, the Police Service of Northern Ireland said. The device exploded as police, who had spotted the suspicious vehicle, were evacuating the area.
The force said a warning call was made to a charity in England and passed on to police minutes before the explosion.
Police released surveillance camera footage of the car being parked in front of the courthouse, and of the driver sprinting away.
