Police in Belfast have not ruled out a racial motive in an overnight petrol bomb attack on a family in the south of the city.
A man, his wife and their five year-old daughter escaped injury but were badly shaken following the attack.
The family was asleep at the time of the attack when two petrol bombs were hurled at the house in Fane Street at around 2.20am.
One petrol bomb hit an upstairs bedroom window and the second ignited when it hit the front door.
Sinn Féin Assembly member for South Belfast, Mr Alex Maskey, called on
unionist political and community leaders to do more to stop racist attacks
in their community.
"Last night an Asian family whose home had been repeatedly attacked since the Twelfth period were petrol bombed from their home.
"We have already witnessed a sustained campaign by unionist paramilitaries to drive ethnic minorities out of the Donegal Road/Sandy Row area," he added
