Larne Catholics burned out
The latest sectarian attack in Larne took place on the
McCorry home in the Craigyhill estate in the early
hours of Saturday morning 21 March.
A firebomb attack left 18 year old Marie McCorry with
burns to her leg.
``The McCorry's are just another Catholic family whose
lives are lived in the shadow of loyalist bigotry,''
said Sinn Féin's Catherine O'Hagan.
The loyalists smashed the living room window with a
paving slab and poured flammable liquid into the room
where Marie McCorry was lying on the sofa and set it
alight. Although burned, Marie raised the alarm and
evacuated the house.
Phoblacht was told that the attack happened after an
altercation between a member of the family and a
loyalist who was shouting sectarian abuse at the
family.
