Parcel bomb sent to Celtic boss Lennon

PARCEL bombs have been sent to Celtic manager Neil Lennon, a lawyer and a politician.

Strathclyde Police have launched an investigation after the the liquid-based devices "designed to cause harm" were sent to Lennon, Paul McBride QC and Labour politician Trish Godman, sources said.

They were initially thought to be hoax packages but analysis has revealed that they could have worked.

A package addressed to Lennon was intercepted at the Royal Mail sorting office in Kirkintilloch, East Dunbartonshire on March 26. On March 28 a parcel for Ms Godman was intercepted at her constituency office and on April 15 a package was intercepted en route to Mr McBride, who has represented Lennon at Hampden during his dispute with the SFA.
