36-year-old John Hackett was found dead at an address on Camp Hill Road on the morning of Wednesday, April 26.

Three teenagers were arrested on April 26 and have been released on bail today (28 April).

Detective Inspector Collette O’Keefe said: “Enquiries are ongoing and residents can expect to continue to see an increased police presence in the area.

“I would like to take this chance to reiterate that we believe this was an isolated incident and there is no risk to the wider public.

“We would also like to remind residents that attempting to share the names of the youths is a criminal offence.

“We are also aware of footage of the altercation being shared on social media and we would ask people to refrain from sharing it.

“Attempting to name the youths or sharing a video can ultimately harm the investigation.”
