In an update to the murder of thirty-two year old Patrick Kerr, the results of a post mortem certify that the cause of his death was Acute Pulmonary Edema, due to multiple gunshot wounds to the chest and abdomen.  Kerr was gunned down as he waited to have a hair cut at a barber on Freetown Road. His murder was on Christmas Eve. And in respect of the Nigerian cab driver Francis Chukwu, the cause of death was due to brain injuries caused by a gunshot wound. Chukwu was shot in the head in his vehicle on Pitter Street on Boxing Day. His personal belongings were found in the taxi. In both cases, no one has been charged.
