LONDON -- A number of police officers were injured in a mortar attack on a County Tyrone police station Wednesday night, a spokesman for the Royal Ulster Constabulary said Thursday.
None of the officers was seriously hurt in the raid which inflicted damage to the rear of the police station and shattered nearby windows.

The attack, believed to the work of the outlawed Irish Republican Army, took place without warning at 8 p.m. at the heavily fortified RUC security base in the village of Clogher.
Army bomb disposal experts later evacuated the area and were examining a vehicle from which the mortar was thought to have been fired.
