A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder by police investigating the death of a mother on a boating holiday in Co Fermanagh.

Lu Na McKinney, 35, and from Co Donegal, was in a hired cruiser in Co Fermanagh with her husband and their two young children when the incident happened last April.

PSNI detective inspector David McGrory said detectives had reviewed the circumstances surrounding the death and have arrested a 41-year-old man on suspicion of murder.

"He is currently in custody at Omagh where he is helping police with their inquiries" he said.

"I would like to appeal to any witnesses to come forward and also anyone who had contact with Lu Na McKinney, who lived in Convoy, Co Donegal, in the months preceding her death."

The PSNI are working with An Garda Síochána to investigate.

The boat was moored at Devenish Island, a popular visitor attraction near Enniskillen, Co Fermanagh.

Emergency services found her body but intensive attempts to resuscitate her failed.

Gardaí and the PSNI are appealing for anyone with information to contact them.
