Tributes paid to slain detective

Hundreds of people gathered in Ballaghaderreen, Co Roscommon, this evening to pay their respects to Detective Garda Colm Horkan.

A guard of honour took place as his remains were brought to his family home in Charlestown, Co Mayo. The 49-year-old worked in Ballaghaderreen for more than 20 years. He was shot dead in nearby Castlerea on Wednesday night and a man remains in custody in connection with the murder.
