The PSNI are at the scene of a security alert at the home of East Belfast GAA.

A police spokesperson said: “Police are currently at the scene of a security alert after receiving a report that devices have been left at playing fields in the Church Road area of east Belfast.

“The public are advised to avoid the area at this time. Further updates will be issued in due course.”

It marks the latest incident targeting the club over recent years since it was founded back in 202.

The latest incident in May saw an alert at the ground eventually declared an elaborate hoax and condemned right across the political spectrum.

In August last year, police launched a hate crime probe after the club’s nets were set on fire and destroyed.

Hoax bomb alerts in September and May 2023 forced officials to close the pitches for a period of time to allow Army bomb experts to examine the scene on both occasions.
