A security alert has been sparked on the Fermanagh-Leitrim border.
It's after a suspicious device was spotted between Garrison and Kiltyclogher this morning.
Gardai and members of the PSNI are attending on their respective sides of the border and the Cashel Road has been closed.
A military vehicle has caught fire on the M1 Motorway whilst responding to the incident this morning.
The road was closed between junctions 14 and 15 amid concerns about the materials on board the army bomb truck.
The Motorway has since re-opened.
DUP Leader Arlene Foster said "It is obviously very worrying for anyone in the area that a device has been discovered. Whilst the full details are not yet known, there is obviously the potential that such a device could have caused death or injury.
"The Device is now being dealt with and I would once again commend the bravery and professionalism of our police service and all those who put themselves in Harm's way to protect the public."
