Police in Lurgan have recovered a quantity of ammunition following a routine patrol in the Kilwilkie area.
The find was made yesterday when officers spotted a package strapped to a tree in an alleyway at Deramore Drive.
It was found to contain bullets which have been taken for further forensic examination.
A further search of the area was conducted this morning ( Monday 18th January ) but nothing else was found.
Inspector Alwyn Peters said: “This excellent police work has taken these dangerous items out of the hands of the criminals who had recklessly left them in a residential area, close to a children’s play area, where children could quite easily have found them.
Our enquiries into this matter are ongoing and I would ask anyone who has witnessed any suspicious activity in this area recently or who has any information which could assist us to contact police in Lurgan on 101 quoting reference number 483 17/01/21.
