Police appeal after ‘sectarian’ explosion at Co Derry home
The PSNI is appealing for information after a pipe bomb left on the window sill of a County Derry home exploded, smashing a window last night.
A woman in her 20s was in the Lincoln Court home at the time, but was not injured in the incident.
The explosion took place just after 10pm on Saturday night in Derry and the attack is being treated as a sectarian hate crime by those investigating.
