Two men have been granted bail after appearing in court charged with painting graffiti in Larne condemning Irish Sea border checks.
William Donnell, 21, from Belfast Road in Larne and Mitchell Leeburn, 25, from Deerpark Road, Kilwaughter, Larne, appeared before Coleraine Magistrates’ Court on Monday via video-link from a PSNI custody suite in Antrim.
Both face several counts of criminal damage and a further count of possessing an article, namely spray paint, with intent to damage property. All the offences allegedly occurred on Saturday in Larne.
The charges relate to graffiti at a variety of locations in the town, including on several retail outlets, Northern Ireland Housing Executive properties, a Roads Service road sign, a number of walls and a billboard.
Police objected to bail on the grounds the accused could commit further offences.
District Judge Peter King granted bail with several conditions attached, including a night-time curfew and a prohibition on entering Larne town centre.
