Sinn Féin MLA Cathal Boylan commenting on reports of attacks on Fire Service Personnel in the Armagh, Keady and Crossmaglen areas has slammed those involved.
The Newry & Armagh MLA stated
“The Fire and Rescue Service work day and daily to protect the community. I share the anger and disappointment of many within our community at the news of these attacks on appliances and personnel"
The Sinn Féin elected representative concluded,
“I would appeal for anyone involving themselves with such activity to reflect today that it could be your family in need of rescue by emergency services and such disgraceful actions put lives at risk".
His colleague Megan Fearon MLA who had attended the Halloween Celebrations in Crossmaglen commented,
"I am deeply saddened to learn of attacks on our Fire Service one of our most valuable public services. They should be viewed as not only violence against Emergency Service staff but also as an attack on the entire community.
