Gunmen open fire on police at Irish border

Officers inspecting rail line after suspected bomb alert shot at by militants as security scares threw transport into chaos

Henry McDonald, Ireland correspondent guardian.co. Sunday 21 March 2010 10.08 GMT

Republican dissidents fired on police officers who were inspecting a suspect device on the Belfast-Dublin rail link at the weekend.

The Police Service of Northern Ireland confirmed today that shots were fired at the officers, who were examining a suspicious object on train tracks near Newry on Saturday night. No one was hurt during the gun attack.

The police and army technical officers have been at the scene of the alert since Friday, when road and rail routes were paralysed across Northern Ireland by a series of bomb scares.

The closure of the rail line between Newry and Dundalk caused widespread disruption for rugby fans travelling to Dublin for the final Six Nations clash between Ireland and Scotland, at Croke Park.

Three special trains taking Irish and Scottish supporters to Dublin had to be cancelled on Saturday. Fans were taken instead by bus across the border.
