Man released without charge in connection with murder
Police have confirmed that a man arrested in Belfast yesterday in connection with the murder of County Antrim car dealer Ronald Todd, has been released without charge.
The man is the third person to be arrested then released in relation to the murder inquiry.
The body of the 30-year-old Lisburn man was recovered from the River Lagan, close to the Stranmillis embankment area of south Belfast on February 14.
Mr Todd was last seen leaving a pub on the Maghaberry Road, outside Lisburn, at about 8pm on December 21 2005.
His Land Rover vehicle was found burnt out, at Ravarnet just outside the city the following day.
At the time of his disappearance, police thought that the father of two may have been murdered because he was believed to be involved in drug dealing.
Post mortem results showed that the victim had suffered multiple head injuries before being tied up and thrown into the Lagan.
