Family escapes Coleraine bomb attack
British Army bomb disposal experts will make safe a massive device after a family escaped unhurt from a pipe bomb attack in Co Derry.
The pipe bomb exploded at the back of a house in Coleraine, where four members of a Catholic family were asleep at the time.
No one was injured in the incident, which happened at Braemar in the Heights area shortly after midnight.
An RUC spokesman said this morning that detectives had not ruled out a sectarian motive for the attack, which came hours after four men were arrested by police in connection with loyalist attacks in the town.
