The Antiville bonfire is tonight being pulled down in the wake of a tragedy that claimed the life of John Steele.
Heavy machinery moved in earlier on Sunday to dismantle the Larne pyre following consultation between the local community and Mid and East Antrim Council.
An MEA source told Belfast Live that “following last night’s tragedy in Larne, the community has requested that Council assist with the removal of bonfire material from the site today”.
