Ammunition found in Co Fermanagh
More than 300 rounds of ammunition have been found on a roadside in Co Fermanagh at the weekend.
The ammunition, which included an assortment of handgun and rifle rounds, was found along a five-mile-stretch between Lisbellaw and Enniskillen on Sunday.
Police have not, as yet, linked the find to any paramilitary group, however there is a suspicion that the ammunition was left there deliberately.
Detectives have appealed to anyone who comes across suspicious items in and around the area not to touch them and contact police immediately.
