Man and woman arrested in murder enquiry
A man and a woman have been arrested by police in connection with the murder of a man in Co Armagh at the weekend.
Police said they had yet to establish a motive for the killing of Paul Crymble, 35, who was found dead off the main Portadown to Markethill Road shortly before 11pm on Sunday.
Along with his wife, the Richhill man had been confronted by a gang of four masked men as they returned to their home at Ballybreagh Road shortly after 2am earlier that morning.
The gang demanded money before bundling him into the family car.
His body was later spotted by a member of the public in a laneway at Cornascreeb Road, two miles from his home.
PSNI Superintendent Bob Moore said no motive had yet been established for the murder.
"There is no indication at this stage of paramilitary involvement however we will obviously be exploring all avenues of inquiry as they emerge," he said.
A post mortem examination is due to be carried out later on Monday.
