Webb horrified by attack on Newtownabbey community centre

Alliance Newtownabbey Councillor Billy Webb has expressed his anger after a community centre in Newtownabbey was badly damaged in a petrol bomb attack. Several petrol bombs and stones were thrown at the Dunanney centre overnight.

Cllr Billy Webb said: “I am horrified that anybody would seek to damage this community centre. It is used by many people throughout the area.

“The Dunanney centre is a vital resource for Rathcoole. I hope they will be able to quickly repair the damage and reopen as soon as possible.

“Those who carried out this attack are just a bunch of thugs who have no respect for the local community. They must be urgently apprehended by the Police, so I would encourage those with any information about this attack to contact the PSNI.”
