Police in the North are continuing to question three men in connection with the attempted murder of a police officer in East Belfast on Sunday.

A 41 year old man was detained in West Belfast yesterday - while two other men, aged 34 and 25, were arrested on Monday.

The PSNI says the bomb - which was found under the officer's car - as he was about to take his family to Sunday lunch - was intended to kill.

Dissident republicans are being blamed.
