Police re-issue appeal in murder enquiry
Police investigating the murder of a man in Newtownards exactly one year ago have renewed their appeal for information.
On the evening of March 24 last year, Andrew Cully, a 47-year-old father of two, was sitting in a dark coloured Peugeot 405 car vehicle at Beaufort Walk in the West Winds Estate, Newtownards when he was shot dead by two masked gunmen at close range.
Police believe the gunmen made their escape via an alleyway situated between 13 and 15 Beaufort Walk before getting into a dark coloured car which made off towards Blenheim Drive.
An extensive police investigation has been conducted into this murder which has resulted in one person being charged with murder.
Detectives want to speak to anyone who has not yet come forward, who was in the Beaufort Walk area on the evening of the murder and who may have witnessed anything suspicious.
In particular, they want to speak to anyone who saw a dark coloured car with what is described as a "noisy engine" in the area.
Anyone with information is asked to call the murder investigation team at Ladas Drive on 028 9070 0319 or contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
