January 2003

Sunday 12 January 2003
The family of a north Belfast postal worker, murdered by loyalists a year ago, have expressed their anger that no one has been brought to justice for his murder.  Danny McColgan, who was 20, was shot dead by the Ulster Defence Association as he arrived for work at the sorting office at Rathcoole on 12 January 2002.  Hundreds of people attended a Mass on Sunday, at St Mary's Star of the Sea Church, marking the first anniversary of the Catholic man's killing.  Later, a memorial plaque was unveiled at Mr McColgan's home in the Longlands estate in Newtownabbey.
