A Parish Priest has described a sectarian attack on his church in Limavady as "disturbing".

The front entrance of St Mary's on Irish Green Street was targetted with 'UDA' and 'UFF' slogans overnight. 

PP Monsignor Bryan McCanny told Q Radio: "I've been here eight years in this parish and nothing of this nature has ever happened before".

He added a message to those responsible: "You're not the kind of people we want in this community, if you cannot respect the different and beautiful buildings, the people that live here; then you have no place in this town".
