Convicted murderer on the run has links to Newtownabbey

Convicted murderer 55-year-old Thomas McCabe is currently unlawfully at large.

McCabe, who was sentenced to life for murder, was released from prison on licence, however following a number of breaches, his licence was revoked in January 2018.


He is described as around 5′ 8″ tall, of medium build with short grey coloured hair. Police believe he has connections to Newry, Newtownabbey and Dublin.

Detective Constable William Arnott said: “I would appeal to anyone who has seen Thomas McCabe, or who knows of his whereabouts to contact us on 101.

“I would also appeal directly to him directly to hand himself in.”
