Man arrested as part of terrorism investigation in Londonderry

The total number of arrests following disruption last week is up to six, after a man was arrested in Co Londonderry today.

A 48-year-old man was arrested following a search of a property in the Victoria Place area of Derry on Sunday, as part of what the PSNI have described as an "ongoing terrorism investigation".

To date in that investigation, two men aged 22 and 41 and a 26-year-old woman were arrested on Thursday, one woman aged 50 was arrested on Friday and a 43-year-old man was arrested on Saturday, all arrested under the Terrorism Act, and all remaining in custody at this time.

On Friday, 16 officers were injured in the Creggan area, with a PSNI spokesperson saying that a large group of people gathered from 6pm and threw missiles at officers, including petrol bombs and masonry.

Searches in Derry over the last several days have produced a number of explosive devices, as well as guns and quantities of ammunition.
