Police are asking for the public's help, following two recent security alerts in Keady.

On the 12th of March police received a report of ‘a bang’ in the Castleblaney Road area.

A beer keg was subsequently removed for examination.

Yesterday another beer keg was located and examined.

It was found to contain a crude homemade explosive however it is not thought to have been viable.

Detective Sergeant Dave Stewart said: “We are working to establish the full circumstances of these incidents and would encourage anyone with information to contact us by calling 101.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the local community for their support and patience while police carried out these operations.”
