Man held over loyalist feud murder

Detectives investigating the murder of one of four people who have been killed in the recent loyalist feud in Northern Ireland have arrested one man.

Stephen Paul, 28, was shot dead at Wheatfield Crescent in north Belfast on 30 July.

The murder has been linked to the continuing feud between loyalist paramilitary groups, the Ulster Volunteer Force and the Loyalist Volunteer Force.
