Security alert at Belfast Telegraph declared a hoax
A security alert at the offices of the Belfast Telegraph has been declared a hoax.
Roads in and around the Telegraph's offices in Royal Avenue were cordoned off shortly before lunchtime on Monday morning. They were reopened a short time later.
Today's incident was the second time in four days that the Belfast Telegraph has been targeted by terrorists.
On Friday a bomb alert sparked traffic chaos in Royal Avenue - and like today's incident, it was also declared a hoax.
