Kelly: Suspect device causing chaos for Strabane residents

Strabane SDLP Councillor Patsy Kelly has said that the discovery of a suspect device near Strabane Golf Club is causing chaos for commuters and residents in the town.

Cllr Kelly said: “Once again the lives of ordinary, decent people are being brought to a standstill by another security alert in our town. Whether or not this turns out to be a viable device, the people of this town are sick, sore and tired of being forced from their homes, being inconvenienced while bringing their children to school or while trying to make it to work.

“Those behind the campaign of destruction that is blighting communities across the North have nothing constructive to offer. Rather all they contribute is the destructive mindset of the past that the people of this island, North and South, voted overwhelmingly against in 1998.


“Police have closed Ballycolman avenue as they deal with this alert. Motorists should avoid this route as the make their way through the town.”
