Three men handed suspended sentences for incidents in 2018

Three men were handed suspended sentences on Wednesday over what a judge described as “shocking incidents of violence and vigilantism” almost five years ago.

All three were made the subject of two year restraining orders and warned not to have any direct or indirect contact with their victims. The charges related to two separate incidents in the early hours of January 14, 2018 in Killyleagh, Co Down. The prosecutor told Judge Geoffrey Miller KC that CCTV captured six men in Castleview at 7.20am who attacked the property, smashing windows and doors and a number of shots were fired at the flat.Police cordoned off the scene and a number of blank ammunition rounds were found in the street. She said DNA on the rounds were linked to Donaldson “but the prosecution can’t prove that he fired the weapon” which has never been recovered.
