60 fish have been found dead in Bessbrook River in County Armagh.
Officials investigating the incident have cordoned off the scene and crime scene investigators are looking for forensic evidence as we speak. Environment Minister, Mark Durkan, has said "i'm concerned about this, i'll be monitoring developments here closely"
PSNI Chief Constable George Hamilton has issued the following statement:
"Police are looking into the deaths of at least 60 fish in Bessbrook River. We are investigating this thoroughly. Unfortunately our investigation has been delayed due to several red herrings but we are certain we have at least one person on the hook for this heinous crime. Thankfully, July is typically a quiet time for the PSNI so we can give this terrible tragedy our full attention".
We can only hope these murderers will be brought to justice.
