Murder probe road checks

-

Twenty-five people have been spoken to in an overnight road check as detectives continue to investigat­e the murder of a retired lecturer shot with a crossbow bolt.

Gerald Corrigan, 74, was struck outside his home near South Stack Road in a remote part of Holyhead, Anglesey, at about 12.35am on April 19 as he adjusted his satellite dish.

The bolt passed through his upper body, narrowly missing his heart, and his right arm. He died in hospital from his injuries on May 11 with his family by his side.

Vehicles, cyclists and pedestrian­s travelling along South Stack Road, near to the junction of Porthdafar­ch Road and Plas Road, were stopped between 10pm on Thursday and 4am yesterday. A review of the informatio­n collected will take place.
