The PSNI Chief Constable has criticised what he's described as "the so-called New IRA" for exploiting young people.

George Hamilton has tweeted hitting out at who he's calling the "big boys" in the so-called New IRA.

He's questioned when they will grow up and learn that law and order will prevail over violence.

It's after a 17-year-old boy became the second person to be charged in connection with 6 nights of violence in Derry Londonderry.

The teenager and a 22-year-old man will face various allegations at Omagh Magistrates Court tomorrow including explosives offences and riotous behaviour.
