Hundreds of people have turned out for a candlelit vigil to remember a father, mother and their son who were murdered in Co Louth earlier this week.

The Catholic Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland Eamon Martin was among those who joined prayers for Mark O’Connor, 54, his wife Louise, 56, and their son Evan, 27.
