Police in Ballymena are appealing for witnesses following the attempted petrol bombing of a house in the Lantarra area on Friday, 24 March.

I would appeal to anyone who may have information which may assist the investigation to contact police at Ballymena on the non-emergency number 101 quoting reference number 1463 24/03/17.
