The Sinn Féin Leader Gerry Adams has condemned those who planted an explosive device in Lurgan, Co. Armagh last night.

Gerry Adams said that 'those behind this attack are entirely unrepresentative of the wider community and are enemies of peace, political progress, and Irish unity'.

Detectives in the North believe they were purposely lured to Victoria Street by a call about a hoax device, that was found to be incapable of exploding.

As they were investigating a second, significant bomb went off.

One officer described the incident as a "clear, unequivocal murder attempt"

Nobody was injured.
