Fermanagh House Fire Bombed

A petrol bomb has been thrown at a house in the Drumbeg area of the border town of Enniskillen.

A window at the back of the house was damaged while paint was thrown at the front of the building around 2.20am this morning.

The Alliance Fermanagh and South Tyrone representative Hannah Su has condemned the petrol bomb attack.

No one was injured, but damage was caused to the house.

Hannah Su said: "This was a disgusting and shocking attack. Somebody could have been seriously injured or worse.

"Those responsible for this incident clearly have no regards for the lives of the people inside this house.

"They are callous individuals who should be locked up and taken off our streets by the authorities," she said, urging, "if anybody has any information about this attack then they must contact the police."
