One year on from the murder of Warren Crossan in west Belfast and police have released more CCTV footage of the suspected gunmen.

The 28-year-old father-of-two was shot multiple times on Rodney Parade off the Lower Falls Road in broad day light on June 27, 2020.

PSNI Detective Chief Inspector Michelle Shaw believes Mr Crossan's killers lay in wait for hours until he visited his mum's house at lunchtime. 

The victim was the son of well-known dissident republican Tommy Crossan who was shot dead in 2014. 

He was previously arrested and questioned about the murder of Robbie Lawlor, a Dublin criminal, who was murdered in Ardoyne last April. 

DCI Shaw said: "Warren's family deserve to have answers and these dangerous men need to be removed from our streets.

"This callous murder was carried out by individuals who have no regard for life.

"It was carried out in a built up residential area on a Saturday afternoon when and it is extremely fortunate that no-one else was injured as a result of this shooting.

"Any one of those bullets could have gone astray and killed a child, at least one of them struck a vehicle owned by a resident."
