Arrest warrant in bomb hoax case

A warrant has been issued for the arrest of a man accused of planting a hoax bomb in a block of flats.

Paul Triballi, 25, of Highleigh Flats, Grove Hill, Brighton, failed to attend Lewes Crown Court for a pre-trial hearing on the case.

He originally appeared at Brighton Magistrates Court in March, following an alert at the block of flats where he lived on 28 February.

Up to 50 flats were evacuated and a controlled explosion was carried out.
