North Belfast man cheats death
North Belfast Catholic Ciaran Delaney says he is lucky to be alive after a gang of loyalists tried to pull him from his car at the junction of the Ligoniel and Upper Crumlin Roads.
The incident occurred on the same day, 10 January, as a loyalist gang attacked the Lady of Mercy School on nearby Bilston Road in Ballysillan. The young man was sitting at the traffic lights at the bottom of the Ligoniel Road when he spotted a gang of loyalists standing across from him at a chip shop.
Sinn FŽin councillor Eoin î Broin warned nationalists to be vigilant and to show "the utmost care at the junction of Ligoniel and Crumlin Roads" as it is a favourite spot for loyalists intent on attacking nationalists.
