A 56-year-old man arrested in connection with a loyalist gun attack in Co Down 30 years ago has been released following questioning.
He was the third person has been arrested in as many days over the shooting at the Thierafurth Inn in Kilcoo on November 19 1992, in which former school teacher Peter McCormack, 42, was killed and three others injured.
The man was arrested in the Belfast area on Thursday morning under the Terrorism Act.
He was taken to the Serious Crime Suite at Musgrave police station in the capital for questioning, before later being released.
A PSNI spokesperson said: “The investigation continues.”
On Tuesday a 63-year-old man and a 58-year-old woman were arrested in the South Down area and questioned before being released.
The arrests came after police issued a fresh appeal for information last November about the attack, which was attributed to the loyalist paramilitary Ulster Volunteer Force.
