PSNI blame dissidents for murders in Derry and Belfast

Dissident republicans have been blamed for murdering two men in the North in shootings linked to criminal disputes.

Barry McCrory, 36, was gunned down in front of his partner in a flat in Derry city centre this morning, less than 24 hours after the body of father-of-four Kevin Kearney was found dumped in a lake in north Belfast. The 46-year-old had also been shot.
