Lunn calls for petrol bomb attacks to stop

Alliance MLA Trevor Lunn has called for calm following several petrol bomb attacks in West Belfast on Thursday night. Several petrol bombs were thrown by youths in the Stewartstown Road area; there were reports of similar attacks at the weekend.

Trevor Lunn MLA said: “These petrol bomb attacks have caused major disruption to the local community. People are just trying to get on with their normal lives, but these mindless thugs are preventing that.

“The residents do not want to live in the middle of this and so I would urge those behind this violence to stop.

“We saw similar incidents at the weekend and I can only hope that we do not see any more disruption over the coming days.

“I would urge anybody with any information about these attacks to contact the police.”
