Woman killed after shots fired during rioting in the Northern Irish city of Londonderry that saw police attacked by petrol bombs and other missiles
"We are treating this as a terrorist incident and we have launched a murder enquiry," Police Service of Northern Ireland Assistant Chief Constable Mark Hamilton said in a statement.
After earlier appealing for calm when a number of shots were fired in the Irish nationalist Creggan area of the city, police confirmed shortly after midnight that the 29-year-old woman had died. O'Neill had earlier posted videos of police vehicles being pelted with what she said were dozens of petrol bombs, bricks, bottles and fireworks. The videos showed two vehicles were left in the middle of the street and lit on fire.
