Lorry driver hijacked and threatened in Belfast
A lorry driver was hijacked in Belfast by armed men claiming to have placed a bomb on the truck, but he ignored their demands and drove to safety. An HGV driver has told the BBC that on 30 March in Belfast, he was hijacked by masked men who announced themselves as being part of the IRA and dropped a package onto his lorry. He was ordered to drive to the M1 motorway bridge at Finaghy Road North, West Belfast, an area he says where there are often a lot of children.
