Updated: 18:28, Friday September 21, 2007
A device has exploded at a school in Liverpool, according to Merseyside police.
It went off under a car outside St Edward's, a Catholic school in the Sandfield Park area of West Derby. Sky News correspondent Mike McCarthy said roads near the school had been blocked off by police.
Inspector Michael O'Callaghan said: "There was an explosion under a car at the school this afternoon."
"What caused the explosion and the reasons behind it we are investigating.
"Nobody has been injured and there has been no collateral damage," he said.
Damon Younis, 38, who lives next to the school, said: "There was a bomb, it was a nail bomb.
"I don't think anyone was injured. The car was at the entrance to the school and one police car has arrived."
Police did not confirm reports the car belonged to a teacher.
I’m flabbergasted. LOL
