Man in court over bus bomb hoax

BBC


A bus was driven under an Orange arch

A Newtownabbey man has been charged with hijacking and placing a hoax device on a bus in Glengormley.

Martin Gerard Rafferty, 38, from Fairyknowe Park, was remanded in custody after appearing at Belfast Magistrates Court.

Two men boarded a bus on the Ballyclare Road on Tuesday, left a package and told the driver to drive it to Glengormley Orange arch.

The road was closed before the object was declared a hoax by the Army.
