Village reeling as second local family dies together one year on

THE Wexford village of Clonroche came to a standstill this weekend as for the second time in 12 months a local family died by murder-suicide.

Dermot Flood, 41, his wife Lorraine, 38, and their children Mark, 6, and Julie, 5, were all found dead in the family home in Clonroche on Saturday.

A huge fire broke out in the downstairs of the two-storey house at 5.30am.
