Chair of Alliance West Tyrone association Eric Bullick has condemned the murder of a Police Officer in Omagh on Saturday.
Eric Bullick said: “Saturday’s murder of Ronan Kerr was a despicable act of cruelty towards an innocent young man and his innocent family.
“This is first and foremost a personal tragedy for the Kerr family. They deserve and will, I believe, receive the support of the entire population of Omagh.
“Ronan Kerr was precisely the type of young man which we need in County Tyrone and this cowardly murder is yet another attack upon the people of Omagh – a town which enjoys strong and positive community relations.
“To revisit the town which similar dissident republicans devastated thirteen years ago shows just how callous and inhuman these people are.
“I would urge anybody with any information about this attack to contact the police.”
