The_Rev Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 (edited) Reports of explosion in Belfast city centre There have been reports of an explosion in Belfast city centre. Police have been dealing with a suspect vehicle on Victoria Street. The area had been evacuated while police examined the car, but a loud bang was subsequently heard. Police said six streets were closed and traffic diversions currently set up were likely to remain in place for a "number of hours". No reports of injury or death yet, but I hope this isn't the start of a new bombing campaign. This picture is doing the rounds on Twitter. Seems it was a failed explosion, only the detonator went off. Nobody got hurt. Edited November 25, 2013 by The_Rev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Ain't nuffink. Usual pre-jesusmas disturbance. They're a pain the arse all the same. I got caught in massive traffic last week because of a 'suspicious device' beside the road. A few years ago, after school, I watched a robot thingy approach a backpack outside City Hall. The bus was delayed like an hour and a half, but I got to see a robot in action! The bag blew up due to some controlled explosion gizmo, there was a load bang and a good deal of smoke.
