Police said a shot was fired at the vehicle on the Glen Road on Friday night.

The dissident republican group Óglaigh na hÉireann said a mortar was also fired.

Searches were carried out earlier this week but follow-up investigations are now taking place.

Well done the dissidents. Just keep upsetting the community the harbours you, the rest of Northern Ireland are happy to live they're lives in normality. Hopefully this will encourage the nationalist community to hand over details to the police but doubt that will ever happen.
