POLICE say the investigation into Saturday night’s bomb attack in the centre of Derry will continue overnight.
As a result, Bishop Street will remain closed until Monday morning.
A PSNI spokesperson said: “There will be continued disruption in Bishop Street and the area will remain closed from Bishops Gate down to the Bishop’s Gate Hotel (which is currently open for business).
“An update to be provided Monday 21st Jan (AM).
“We have worked tirelessly to reduce the crime scene and the impact this is having on the community.
“Bishop Street carpark remains closed with no access to vehicles/pedestrians.
“We are aware that a number of people are seeking the return of their vehicles – unfortunately this cannot be facilitated due to the continuing police operation.
“We would like to thank the community for their patience & support – and will provide you with updates should things change between now and Monday morning.”
