Detectives re-visit scene of Ian Ogle murder one week on

Detectives investigating the murder of 45-year-old Ian Ogle in Cluan Place in East Belfast, have revisited the scene of his murder one week on.

Officers handed out leaflets to pedestrians last night (Sunday) in the Cluan Place, Albertbridge Road and Templemore Avenue areas.


They spoke to people and placed posters on lamp posts to encourage eye witnesses to come forward.

Shortly before 9.30pm last Sunday night (January 27), Ian’s killers parked a black Seat Leon, registration number JGZ 7406 in Langtry Court, just off Templemore Avenue.

Police said they then walked the short distance to Cluan Place, via Templemore Avenue and the Albertbridge Road.

After the attack, they returned to Templemore Avenue – some of the killers got into the car and others dispersed on foot from Langtry Court, through the houses. The car was driven along Templemore Avenue, into Major Street and onto the lower Newtownards Road, before being left at Pitt Place, police have said.

Detective Inspector Deborah Eakin added: “I would continue to appeal for anyone who was in the area of the Beersbridge Road, Albertbridge Road, Templemore Avenue or Lower Newtownards Road, between 8.30pm and 10pm last Sunday to come forward and speak to us.

”If you were driving in that area or have any dash-cam footage, please contact us.

“Anyone who has any information can contact detective on 101 referencing 1303 of 27/1/19 or by calling Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 which is completely anonymous.”
