Webb condemns those responsible for security alerts in Newtownabbey

Alliance Newtownabbey Mayor Cllr Billy Webb has expressed his outrage at those responsible for two security alerts in Newtownabbey. A suspicious object was found on the Longwood Road and the area around the Antrim Road in Glengormley has been closed off.

Cllr Billy Webb said: “The public are completely opposed to those behind these suspicious objects. The only thing that these mindless thugs are achieving is to cause disruption and harm to the local community and businesses.

“Everybody else has signed up to the peace process, it is about time that these idiots realise the damage they are doing and stop their actions now.

“If anybody has any information about these security alerts then should contact the police.” ENDS
