Bomb explodes at UK school
Liverpool - An explosive device went off underneath a car outside a school in Liverpool, north-west England, on Friday, police said, but no injuries were reported.
The device, reportedly involving a nail-bomb, went off outside St Edward's College in the city, said a Merseyside police officer.
"There was an explosion under a car at the school this afternoon," said Inspector Michael O'Callaghan. "What caused the explosion and the reasons behind it we are investigating."
"Nobody has been injured and there has been no collateral damage," he added.
A nearby resident, Damon Younis, said: "There was a bomb, it was a nail-bomb. I don't think anyone was injured. The car was at the entrance to the school and one police car has arrived."
Britain has been on high alert since failed terrorist attacks in London and Glasgow at the end of June, although there was no indication that the Liverpool incident was terrorism-related. -Sapa-AFP
