A man shot dead outside a pub in Belfast is believed to be the second victim of a loyalist paramilitary feud.

Roy Green, a member of the Ulster Defence Association was shot dead by opponents of Johnny "Mad Dog" Adair.

Mr Green was gunned down near the front door of the bar in the Ballynafeigh district of South Belfast.

An associate of the UDA, the Ulster Freedom Fighters, has admitted the killing of Mr Green.

The incident is the most recent attack as the feud continues between rivals of Adair after his expulsion from the UDA several months ago.

On Stephen's night, 22-year-old Jonathan Stewart, a relative of Johnny Adair, was shot dead at a house party in north Belfast.
