Detectives from the Police Service of Northern Ireland’s Serious Crime Branch have made two arrests following searches of premises in the Currynierin area of Derry earlier today, February 5.
The arrests are part of an ongoing investigation following a report, received on 11 January, of shots fired in the Tullymore Road area of the city.
The men, aged 37 and 47, were each arrested for offences under the Terrorism Act, and both remain in custody at this time.
Detective Inspector McCallum said: “The searches and arrests are part of our investigation into a report of, and video showing, gunshots being fired in the Tullymore Road area.
“The video, which was circulated, shows a number of masked individuals, holding firearms, and standing next to an Óglaigh na hÉireann flag. One of the individuals fired a number of shots into the air.
