leading loyalist Billy Wright has been slightly injured in an IRA booby trap car bomb attack in Portadown, placed by the IRAs North Armagh brigade.
In June 1994, RUC officers visited Wright to warn him that someone had been seen tampering with his car. The officers were with him while he searched his car, but found nothing. Wright then sat in the car and started it, which detonated a bomb planted in the engine and set the car on fire.
