So do we know what actually happened, or is it all shrouded in secrecy to keep egg off faces
I heard... that a soldier heard an explosion whilst on guard at 3am (ish), so reported it. He was a credible witness and give a very good account of what he heard.

The police then closed the road after confirming it wasnt a burst tyre or an accident and found a bunch of "old detonators" whilst doing a search.

They sealed off the area and called in Bomb Disposal and they blew the detonators up and made a search to see if any more lying around.


Not a taps nose moment by any means though.
