Detectives have returned to the scene of an attack on a man who died after being seriously assaulted in County Antrim.

James McMahon, 21, died after being beaten with baseball bats by three masked men in Lisburn on 20 November.

The Catholic man suffered serious head injuries during the assault at Hancock Street in the city centre.

He was taken to the Royal Victoria Hospital in Belfast where he died.

On Thursday, the police questioned passers-by on Hancock Street in the hope of jogging someone's memory.

Detectives have not ruled out a sectarian motive for the attack and have confirmed that possible loyalist involvement in the murder is a major line of inquiry.
