Police investigating the attempted murder of two police officers in Strabane last month have arrested a 28-year-old man.
He has been taken to Musgrave Serious Crime Suite for questioning.
A property in Strabane was also searched and a number of items were seized.
The two officers had been on patrol on Thursday at Mount Carmel Heights when a bomb was detonated at the side of their vehicle, prompting police to pursue a “strong line of inquiry” into whether the New IRA were involved.
PSNI assistant chief constable Bobby Singleton said the location of the incident in Strabane and previous attacks made the involvement of the dissident republican splinter group a possibility.
Neither officer was injured in the attack, which caused a major security alert in the area, affecting more than 1,000 residents and leaving some children unable to get to school on Friday.
The attempted murder investigation continues, and police are appealing to anyone with information to contact them on 101.
