Man is held over firebomb attacks

An incendiary device was left at the Homebase store in Belfast

A 22-year-old man has been arrested in connection with a number of firebomb attacks at a retail park in Belfast.

The Homebase store on Boucher Road was destroyed and nearby Smyth's toyshop was badly damaged by incendiary devices on 1 November.

A number of staff were in the Homebase store when the device exploded, but no-one was injured.

More than 70 firefighters tackled the blazes which senior fire officers described as extremely dangerous.
