20-year-old arrested for "anti-Catholic" comments on Facebook...

A 20-year-old man has been arrested in relation to alleged sectarian comments made on a social media site.

It is understood the arrest comes after Sinn Féin MLA Daithí McKay lodged a number of complaints with police regarding comments made on facebook which he described as "anti-Catholic."

Mr McKay said the comments began appearing after a contentious Twelfth of July feeder parade in Rasharkin.

The North Antrim political representative said more comments including 'KAT' which stands for 'Kill All Taigs' appeared last week before a Loyalist band paraded in the Co Antrim village. More...
