Geo 436 BELFAST: A car bomb has exploded outside a police station in Northern Ireland, injuring three people in the latest attack to rock the troubled province, police said. The blast in Newtownhamilton, County Armagh, happened at around 11:25 pm (2225 GMT) Thursday, said a spokeswoman for the Police Service of Northern Ireland. Three people were hurt and taken to hospital, police said, although their injuries were not believed to be life-threatening. “Police were made aware that a vehicle had been abandoned in the area after a telephone call was received by a Belfast hospital at around 10:30 pm (2130 GMT),” said the spokeswoman. “Police were en route to the scene at the time of the explosion.” There was no immediate claim of responsibility, but dissident republicans seeking to destabilise the province’’s peace process are usually blamed. Local lawmaker Dominic Bradley, of the SDLP party, said firemen in the area were alerted to a suspicious vehicle after hearing a series of gunshots at about 10:40 pm (2140 GMT).
