Gunbattle Follows Peace Bid in Belfast Clash
Belfast reported gunmen fought a three hour battle in dark streets shortly after Britain freed 75 suspected IRA members to bolster Catholic support. One soldier died and a militiaman was critically wounded as over 200 shots were fired around New Lodge. The same day a nurse’s home was fired on and shops damaged by a bomb in Lurgan. The 75 freed men were the largest internment release since policy began. In other notes, Doug Favell, 27, agreed to a three year NHL extension with the Philadelphia Flyers after being acquired from Boston.
