River hit by fish kill
![]() Scores of fish have been killed
Hundreds of fish have been killed along a mile of the Inver river in Larne.
It is believed they died as a result of a pollution spill. Frank Quigley of the Larne and District Game and Angling Club said this was the second time in four years the river has been decimated. He said a change of attitude was needed urgently. Speaking on Monday, Mr Quigley said: "Our rivers have just been treated like somewhere to get rid of effluent, that's been the attitude."
