More info:

“A device has exploded inside a teacher’s car near a school in Liverpool.
Merseyside police said no-one was injured when it went off at Runnymede St Edward’s, a Catholic primary school in the West Derby area.
Sky News correspondent Mike McCarthy said it was a substantial explosion.

He said Superintendent Ian Pilling, who called crime “despicable”, had told him a teacher’s silver car was “considerably damaged”.

Mr Pilling said the car was only 30ft away from the school building when the device exploded at 2.50pm.

“An explosive device had been placed inside the car,” he said.

“At this stage we can’t say exactly what device it was but it was detonated inside the vehicle.

“This was a despicable offence. Children were in the process of leaving, nobody was killed or injured but that was down to good luck.”

The primary, and a nearby senior school, was evacuated immediately after the bomb went off in an area for staff parking.

Damon Younis, 38, who lives next to the school, said: “There was a bomb, it was a nail bomb.”
