FERMANAGH: Police in Fermanagh have revealed that the Real IRA has claimed it tried to attack a police patrol on the Fermanagh-Monaghan border area last Monday.
A PSNI spokesman said that a report was made to a local newspaper in Ferrmanagh and the caller claimed a coffee jar bomb had been thrown at a patrol car near Wattlebridge.
“We have no first hand knowledge of any attack. However, we thought it would be prudent to warn the public and let people know about this claim, which we have been unable to substantiate,” he said.
