CCTV Released Linked To Sean Fox Murder
CCTV footage has been released of two suspects who were caught at the scene of the murder of Sean Fox, 42, in west Belfast on Sunday, 02 October.
Crimestoppers has also offered a reward of £20,000 for anonymous information it receives that leads to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the murder.
Mr Fox was shot dead at the Donegal Celtic Sports and Social Club in front of several witnesses.
Detective Superintendent Eamonn Corrigan said: "This was a calculated, planned, ruthless execution. It was carried out in broad daylight and in the presence of others.
"The gunmen arrived, carried out the murder and left the club in under a minute. They were inside the premises for approximately 21 seconds. They left on foot, along the Suffolk Road, in the direction of Gweedore Gardens.
"This is a popular local club widely used by local families with young children. The gunmen fired 20 bullets and we have identified multiple strike marks. Anyone in that room or indeed nearby, could have been killed or seriously injured on Sunday.
"This cold-blooded act has taken a man’s life. It has left a family bereft, and many others in the local community shocked. This barbaric act has no place in any society."
