Description

Shots have been fired into a second-hand shop on Crimea Street on the Shankill Road. The damage caused by the bullets can be clearly seen. The police did investigate this but were unable to say why this incident took place at the time. It would later transpire that the shooting was the work of a UVF gang also responsible for the murders of John Scullion and Peter Ward.

Credits

An Ulster Television Production.
