- BY JANE CORSCADDEN

TWO people have been arrested after Extinction Rebellion activists sprayed paint on a bank yesterday.

According to one activist, Barclays on Castle Place in central Belfast was targeted to draw attention to the “impunity with which it funds and profit from new fossil fuels”.

A PSNI spokesman said: “A man aged 33 and a woman, 30, were arrested on suspicion of criminal damage and disorderly behaviour.”
