Man arrested in teen double murder probe

Detectives investigating the murders of two teenagers who died in a frenzied stabbing in the North have arrested a man.

A house and car were also searched when the 36-year-old man from Ballymoney was detained.

David McIlwaine, 18, and Andrew Robb, 19, from Portadown were found dead with multiple wounds after leaving a disco in neighbouring Tandragee in February last year at the height of a feud between rival loyalist paramilitary factions.

Mr McIlwaine's family insisted their son had no connections with any groups.

Several people have been questioned and released, and at one stage a 19-year-old youth was accused in connection with the murders. The charges were later dropped.
