So basically today, being a saturday, i was working near my city centre at a Guitar Shop.
There was an explosion this morning at 11am, on the road that the shop faces down. Fire engines, police cars turned up, they blocked off the road and evacuated everyone from it.
I wasn't there when the explosion happened, but someone had spoken to a policeman who'd said there was an explosion this morning.
Then, around 3pm, a bomb disposal squad turned up, then wee knew it was serious...
They stayed until i left for home at 5pm, so i don't know what happened after i left, but i spoke to a policeman guarding the road, he was about 23 and he said 'There was an incident that occured this morning, but i am not authorized to disclose further information.' Spoon.
So anyway i spoke to people and it turns out there was a bomb in a dustbin behind a restaurant. They later found another potential bomb.
Residents have now been allowed to return home, but i'd be really worried if i lived there.
