A man's been arrested at a Belfast airport under the Terrorism Act, following an incident where a large crowd armed with baseball bats damaged a bar on the Shankill Road.
A gang of 20 men, some armed with bats, reportedly entered the Bar Berlin on Friday evening and smashed windows and TVs.
On Sunday night, officers from the Paramilitary Crime Task Force arrested a 60-year-old man at Belfast City Airport.
He was detained under the Terrorism Act and is being questioned by detectives.
PSNI Detective Chief Inspector Kelly said: “The man, who was arrested at Belfast City Airport on Sunday night, was arrested under the Terrorism Act and remains in custody at this time.
“Our enquiries into this incident on Friday 27th January are ongoing and I would ask anyone with information or who may be able to help with our investigation, to call detectives at Grosvenor Road on 101, quoting reference number 1696 27/01/23."
