A dissident republican group known as the 'new IRA' has said it carried out a shooting in north Belfast in which a police officer was wounded.

The gun attack happened at a petrol station on the Crumlin Road on Sunday evening.

The officer, who is in his 20s, was hit two or three times in the arm.

Terrorists, whatever their religion, skin colour, or reason, should be treated the same way.

If you don't have or agree with the death penalty then lock them up for the rest of their lives.

We don't have the death penalty in the UK and they certainly won't get a proper life sentence for it, they'll get sentenced to about 20 years and probably let out a few years early for good behaviour.

Fuck the 'RA.

So you honestly think Sinn Féin would cheer on a group that is out to destroy everything they've achieved in the last fifteen years, especially now that reunification is closer than it's ever been, Bella?

You truly are pathetic.

This is what happens if you have armed police officers.

It was not sin fein who carried out the attack.
They are part of the establishment now where they should be, to stop violence you need to be inclusive and talk not be a line in the sand absolutist.

Police have said they believe a gun used to injure an officer in north Belfast last week had been used before to attack police in the city.

The gun attack happened at a petrol station on the Crumlin Road on Sunday, 22 January. The officer was hit twice in the arm.

Police believe an AK assault rifle was used in the attack.

They also said a number of cars at the petrol station had been struck by gunfire.

Police revisited the scene on Sunday night and appealed for information about a car used in the attack.

A car identical to the dark red Audi A4 Estate, registration number KNZ 2862, which detectives believe the attackers used to leave the scene, was parked in Flax Street during the hour-long revisit.
