A school in Co Antrim has been evacuated after an eight-year-old boy carried a suspect device into a classroom.
British Army explosives experts were called to St Comgall's Primary School this morning after one of the pupils found a suspected pipe bomb.
The child was the first pupil to arrive at school and brought the suspect device into the school before alerting a teacher.
The school was immediately evacuated and the 400 children were moved to a nearby church hall and then sent home.
'It's absolutely crazy. It's unbelievable that innocent children should be caught up in something like this,' said school principal Hilary Cush.
PSNI Chief Inspector Simon Walls condemned those responsible.
