Teen in court over man's murder | |
(about 23 hours later) | |
A teenager has appeared in court charged with the murder of a west Belfast father of eight. | |
Seamus Fox, 58, was found with serious head injuries on waste ground behind Woodbourne police station on Thursday morning and died shortly afterwards. | |
Gerard Connor, 18, from Glenveagh Drive in west Belfast appeared in Belfast Magistrates Court on Saturday. | |
His family wept in court as the charge was read. His solicitor said he strenuously denied it. | |
The court was told that Mr Connor gave himself up to police in Antrim shortly after the killing. | |
In court on Saturday, a detective said he could connect the teenager with the charge. | |
The incident happened close to the police station but the detective said that no CCTV evidence had been put to the accused during initial questioning. | |
Mr Connor was remanded in custody until 18 May. |
