Alice Morrow murder: did you see her in the Belvoir or Ballyduff areas?

A further appeal for information has been made by detectives from the PSNI’s Major Investigation Team, who are investigating the murder of 53-year-old Alice Morrow in east Belfast.

Alice’s body was discovered in her flat at Whincroft Way, on Sunday (March 10).


Police believe that she may have been murdered sometime between noon and 8pm that day.

Detective Chief Inspector Pete Montgomery said: “My thoughts today are very much with Alice’s family and friends who are trying to come to terms with their loss.  She was a mother of 3, a grandmother of 3 and a sister.”
