Explosive Device Found in Glenarm, Man Charged

0:00On April 8th, a security alert hit County Antrim this week after police found a viable explosive device on Facetown Road in Glenarm. A 43-year-old man now faces serious charges tied to the incident that unfolded on Monday. He's accused of committing an act meant to spark an explosion that could endanger lives or wreck property, plus blocking police efforts during the probe. The discovery prompted a full security lockdown in the area, with bomb experts handling the device safely, though no one got hurt. That suspect is set to face Colrain magistrate's court later today, Wednesday, while a 47-year-old napped in the same sweep got released, unconditional. Police are still digging into leads, but for now, the threats contained, keeping folks in Glenarm a bit more at ease as the case moves forward.
