Catholics escape murder attacks
A Catholic man and a Catholic family have narrowly escaped death in
two separate incidents in Antrim and Armagh.
The first incident occurred around 1am on Monday, 10 May when a
petrol bomb was thrown through the bedroom window of a flat on
Kilgreel Road in the Parkhall estate.
The resident, who escaped through a back window, was uninjured but
his home suffered extensive damage. The man's next door neighbour's
car was also petrol bombed.
One Catholic resident of the estate said: ``Catholics here are
constantly intimidated. I am very concerned for my children and I
wake up every night waiting for it to happen to me''.
The second attack occurred after 11pm on Sunday, 9 May, when a petrol
bomb was thrown through the window of a Catholic families home in
Edenaveys Crescent, off the Newry Road in Armagh. The small estate,
which consists of 50 to 60 houses, used to be about 50% Catholic and
50% Protestant. However, most Catholics have now been intimidated out
of the area, which is adorned by sectarian UVF/UFF/RHD bunting.
