A security alert in the Moss Park area of Derry/Londonderry has ended.
Police received a report of a suspicious device in the area, in the vicinity of St Paul’s Primary School, shortly before 7pm this evening (Thursday, 23 May).
Police immediately put in place a public safety operation, closing a section of Moss Road.
... ATO attended the scene and carried out an examination and controlled explosion on the suspicious device. The device has been declared an elaborate hoax and has been taken away for further forensic examination.
Moss Road has since re-opened.
Superintendent Gordon McCalmont said: “I would like to thank the local community for their patience and understanding during the course of this policing operation.
“The blame for the inconvenience, however, lies squarely with those individuals who left this close to a local school, which was being used as a polling station this evening. Those responsible have absolutely nothing to offer local people or society in general.
“I would like to appeal to anyone who has information about this incident to contact police at Strand Road on 101, quoting reference number 1639 of 23/05/19. Alternatively, information can also be provided to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 which is 100% anonymous and gives people the power to speak up and stop crime.”

Police in Derry/Londonderry have condemned disorder in the city this evening while officers were in attendance at a security alert in the Moss Park area of the city.
Police were called to the area following a report of a suspicious device around 7pm in the vicinity of St. Paul’s Primary School, which was being used as a polling station. The alert continues at this time.
When officers attended the scene this evening they came under attack with five petrol bombs being thrown a...t them. One of the petrol bombs thrown was in the Glengalliagh Park area where there was a number of children in close proximity to where it landed.
Police have recovered six petrol bombs from the area, along with 20 paint bombs and two crates of empty bottles.
Police subsequently arrested three male youths, two teenagers aged 17 and a boy aged 12 in connection with the disorder. All three are currently in custody assisting with enquiries.
Superintendent Gordon McCalmont said: “There is no doubt my officers were lured into the area this evening and that those involved in this orchestrated disorder had one aim in mind - to attack police.
“This was all the more reckless by the fact that one of the petrol bombs hurled at police landed in close proximity to young children who could have been left seriously injured, or worse.
“This security alert is the second this month in this area, impacting the same community that was disrupted on May 2 during local Council elections.
“It cannot be lost on anyone the disruption this has caused in the local community, let alone the potential for serious harm that could have been caused.
“I want to thank the public for their patience however when it comes to keeping people safe we take no chances. I would urge anyone who has information about the disorder this evening to contact police at Strand Road on 101 quoting reference number 1639 of 23/05/19.”
Alternatively, call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Your number is up!!
Policing is a topical subject and most people have an opinion on what we do and how we do it.
When on patrol we often hear things like "why don't you go catch real criminals" or "have you nothing better to do". The reality is we can only deal with the next thing we detect or sent to.
... With this in mind there is no doubt that the best results are achieved when the community engage positively with us.
We recently had a great example of this collaborative work.
Ballyarnett Npt were asked to return items to local businesses. Not the most exciting task but sure it has to be done.
Off we set to the Faustina Retail Park, Buncrana Road. Upon entering the area we get information that staff and members of the public believe a male is dealing drugs in the car car park.
This is more like it, so without hesitation we immediately approach and speak with the male sitting in the drivers seat of the vehicle identified.
This male is not quite as happy to see his local neighbourhood officer magically appear at his drivers window. Initially he explains that he is waiting on his wife who is shopping nearby. However when police point out the communities concerns he confirms he has drugs in his car and cash in his pocket.
This male is then arrested for drug related offences and when searched is found to be in possession of £1280 cash. His BMW vehicle is then searched and drugs are located. These drugs are seized along with the car being used in this illegal activity.
The suspect is soon in custody and a house search is conducted. More drugs and cash in excess of £6000 are located and seized at this location.
Police are in the process of building a strong case against this individual and hope that a percentage if not all of the money seized will be returned via the courts to positive community projects within Ballyarnett DEA.
This should be a timely reminder that when we work together crime does not pay.
