A bomb has been found near GAA premises in Armagh, the police have said.

It was found after police carried out another search in the Friary Road area of Armagh city, following a claim that a device was left there on 13 December.

The device has been removed for examination. Inspector Paul Fulham said it could have caused serious injury.

"This device could have caused serious harm and grief to members of the public, especially children who may have played in the area," he said.
