The owner of a car destroyed in what may have been a sectarian petrol bomb attack in Ballymoney has spoken out.
The vehicle was burnt out outside 20-year-old Gary Kelly's Queen Street home in the early hours of Friday morning, at around 1am.
The young man, who works as a classroom assistant and plays bowls for Ireland, lives there with his parents, his brother and disabled uncle.
Police are investigating a possible sectarian motive - but Mr Kelly told u105 he and his family have never had any trouble like this before.
"My family can't understand why or what the reason is for us being attacked in this way - we've never had any trouble," he said.
"It's upsetting and I'm in a bit of shock, to be honest.
'Shock'
"It's disappointing because we're just a quiet family that keep ourselves to ourselves and don't bother nobody. We have no suspicions whatsoever about who's responsible because we can't think why."
Mr Kelly, who said he does not really go out in Ballymoney, works at the town's Catholic secondary school Our Lady of Lourdes.
He said: "I don't know if there could be any link to that or not. Possibly, because it's a Catholic school - but I don't honestly know."
Police have appealed for information about the attack, which has been condemned by local Sinn Fein MLA Daithi McKay.
In branding the incident "disgraceful", he said: "I know that people from across the community in this town will condemn it outright.
"People are being targeted here for the solitary reason that they are Catholic, nothing more, and the fact that petrol bombs are being used demonstrates the seriousness of the situation."
