Hundreds at burial of ‘Flat Cap’

- BY CORMAC O’SHEA

HUNDREDS gathered as Kevin “Flat Cap” Murray was buried yesterday.

The funeral of the suspected Regency Hotel gunman was held at the Church of the Immaculate Conception in Strabane, Co Tyrone.

Huge crowds lined the streets as family and friends carried the coffin. The father of two, 47, died in his home at Townsend Street, Strabane, on Wednesday night.

A judge ruled earlier this year he was too ill to go on trial in relation to the Dublin gangland murder in February last year.

Murray had been diagnosed with terminal motor neurone disease.
