ANTRIM, Northern Ireland, Nov. 17 (UPI) -- A woman jailed 36 years ago for an IRA bombing was in custody Tuesday for the deaths of two soldiers in Northern Ireland this year, officials said.
Marion Price was arrested at her home in west Belfast by detectives investigating the fatal shootings of two British soldiers in March at the Massereene army barracks in Antrim Town, The Guardian reported.
Price spent years in jail for the 1973 bombing of the Central Criminal Court in London, known as the Old Bailey.
Price and an alleged 35-year-old male accomplice were being held Tuesday at the Antrim police station. They had not been charged. A third suspect, North Armagh resident Colin Duffy, was arrested earlier and charged with murder, The Guardian said.
A group calling itself the Real IRA claimed responsibility for the March killings.
Price previously has said she longer participates in an armed struggle against British forces, though she has denounced Sinn Fein's participation in the political power-sharing arrangement as a betrayal of republican beliefs.
