Former Derry Mayor to leave home
A former mayor of Derry, SDLP assembly member Pat Ramsey, is to leave his Bogside home following a series of attacks.
Mr Ramsey's house has been attacked on numerous occasions over the years, and was subjected to a petrol bomb attack last September.
While the incidents have been blamed on dissident republicans, Mr Ramsey said that he has "had enough" and the attacks had taken their toll on his family.
In July, a controlled explosion was carried out on a suspect device that turned out to be a bomb hoax.
It is reported that Mr Ramsey is to move to the Waterside area of the city, which is predominantly Protestant.
