A Christmas peace in Northern Ireland ended early Sunday when two small bombs were set off at a police station.

There were no injuries, and the Rosemont police station was not damaged.

The Irish Republican Army, which is fighting to end British rule in Northern Ireland, had called a three-day holiday cease-fire.

The bombs went off half an hour after the truce ended at midnight, but no one immediately claimed responsibility.
