Lyra McKee, 29, a rising star of investigative journalism, was shot and killed, police say probably by a stray bullet aimed at police, during rioting Thursday night. Police said the New IRA dissident group was most likely responsible and called it a"terrorist act." "What we are seeing is a new breed of terrorist coming through the ranks and that for me is a very worrying situation," he said.
The killing was condemned by all the major political parties as well as the prime ministers of Britain and Ireland.The European Union's chief Brexit negotiator, Michel Barnier, said the killing was"a reminder of how fragile peace still is in Northern Ireland" and called for work to preserve the Good Friday peace agreement.
