Three men accused of murdering journalist Lyra McKee in Northern Ireland more than seven years ago have been found not guilty.

The 29-year-old author died after being shot as she stood close to police vehicles, watching disturbances in the Creggan area of Londonderry in April 2019.

The New IRA – a dissident republican paramilitary group – claimed responsibility for her death.

Peter Cavanagh, 38, of Mary Street in Derry, Jordan Gareth Devine, 25, of Bishop Street and Paul McIntyre, 58, of Kells Walk faced a joint enterprise murder charge.
