The RUC are investigating a possible link between a stolen motorbike
uncovered at Tardrey forest in Antrim last night and the murder of catholic
teenager, Ciaran Cummings.
The police completed a search of the forest earlier today and uncovered
a quantity of ammunition in the vicinity. The stash included a selection
of pistols and rifles, a smoke grenade and a flare.
Earlier this morning, two petrol bombs were thrown at a house in Strandtown
in Belfast. The bombs shattered two windows including a bedroom window
where a twelve year old girl was sleeping. No one was injured in the attack.
Meanwhile, a 24-year-old man is recovering in hospital after he was shot
in the leg in Portadown early this morning.
The shooting happened at around 1.30 a.m. in Princess Street, Portadown,
Co Armagh.
