ARRESTS STEPPED UP

Constable Killed

BELFAST, DEC. 30.

MEMBERS OF THE OUTLAWED IRISH REPUBLICAN ARMY WERE REPORTED LATE TONIGHT TO HAVE THROWN A BOMB AT A POLICE STATION AT DERRYLIN, COUNTY FERMANAGH, FATALLY INJURING A YOUNG POLICE- MAN, CONSTABLE SEAN SCALLY, AGED 22.

The raiders, their faces blackened, surrounded the Royal Ulster Constabulary building in a rainstorm.

They threw a bomb at the door of the station and opened fire as the police came running out into the darkness.

After a five-minute gun duel, the raiders made a complete getaway into the dense countryside surrounding this tiny Fermanagh hamlet.

A spokesman at the County Hospital Fermanagh said later that the injured constable, Scally, was dead on arrival at the hospital.

Scally, whose home was at Ballycastle, County Antrim, was said to have gunshot wounds.

A midnight statement issued by the Royal Ulster Constabulary headquarters in Belfast said: "At about 10.20 p.m., Derrylin RUC station, County Fermanagh, was attacked by armed men.

"After a heavy bomb had blown in the front door yolleys of small arms fire were directed at the opening.

"The police returned the fire and the attackers withdraw."\/\ “Constable Sean Scally, was wounded in the back and later died. Police and military began a search of the area for the raiders. On December 18 a heavy attack was launched against the Derrylin polleo station, which is 11 miles from Enniskillen,

A heavy bomb then blew in the front d r and the front of the building was sprayed with automatic fire. The police kept the attackers at bay until reinforcements arrived.--Reuter.
