'Guns In Car' Man In Court
A 52-year-old man who was arrested on Monday after police allegedly found guns in a BMW they searched has appeared in court.
Paul McDaid, of Sheridan Street in Belfast, spoke only to confirm his name and will appear again at Lisburn court next month, via videolink.
He allegedly had two handguns and 14 rounds of ammunition in the vehicle.
Police stopped the vehicle near Hillsborough in County Down as part of an operation investigating dissident republican activity.
Warrenpoint Marina Plans To Go Ahead
Plans for a new marina in Warrenpoint have been given the go-ahead at a meeting of Newry and Mourne District Council.
If the project gets EU funding, a 200-berth marina will be operational in the town by early 2015.
And SDLP councillor Michael Carr told the County Down Outlook that together with the news that passenger cruise vessels could come to the town again, the marina project would "bring a massive boost to tourism in the Carlingford Lough and Newry and Mourne areas, which have so much to offer".
4G To Come To Belfast
Belfast is to get superfast 4G mobile broadband products and services by Christmas.
Orange and T-Mobile owner Everything Everywhere have teamed up and will make the technology available in 16 cities across the UK.
The services will allow uninterrupted access to the web on the go, with faster download speeds and the end of buffering on TV streams.
