Second Arrest As Police Probe Doorman's Death

Another person has been held by police investigating the death of a man who was working as a pub and club doorman in Londonderry.

The 46-year-old man was arrested in Derry today (Thursday) in connection with the murder of Brian McGlynn, 28, who was shot dead at his home in the Fountain Hill area of the Waterside on Sunday, 3 June, last year.

The PSNI said today that the man is also being questioned about membership of the INLA.

Meanwhile, a 30-year-old man arrested on Wednesday is still in custody and the detectives have appealed for the person who contacted them at Strand Road recently about the murder to get in touch again.

The victim, Mr McGlynn, was originally from Strabane, and had been working as a doorman at a nightclub and a pub in Derry City when he was killed.
