The PSNI says a viable device was found during a security alert in West Belfast
Horn Drive was shut earlier but it's now re-opened and the device has been sent away for forensic examination
Detective Sergeant Kelly said "This device was initially discovered by a member of the public and during the security operation a number of residents had to be evacuated from their homes for their own safety. We would like to thank them for their assistance during this. Those responsible have shown a complete disregard for the safety of residents in this community.
"Anyone with information should contact Detectives at Musgrave quoting reference 699 of 25/9/17, or if they wish to remain anonymous Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111."
