New IRA apologizes for murder of Irish journalist Lyra McKee.
The paramilitary organization New Irish Republican Army apologized for the murder of 29-year-old journalist Lyra McKee, as a third person was arrested in connection with the death.
In the statement, the group, which formed in 2012 as an offshoot to the Irish Republican Army, claimed"volunteers" were deployed after British forces"provoked rioting." The rioting apparently erupted as homes belonging to Irish republicans, who believe Ireland should be separate from British rule, were raided ahead of the Easter weekend. Rioters threw over 50 petrol bombs and hijacked two vehicles, which were later set on fire, police said.
