A street in Drogheda has been sealed off after a suspicious item was found in a house.

The Army bomb disposal team has been called to the scene at Mary Street by gardaí.

Mary Street is a quiet residential street on the southside of the Boyne.

Last month a suspicious device was found in car parked at the bottom of the street. It was linked to the ongoing feud between two criminal gangs.

It is not yet known if the latest discovery is also linked to that feud.
