An off-duty police officer shot by masked men in Co Tyrone has been named as Detective Chief Inspector John Caldwell.
The senior PSNI officer was shot four times by masked men in front of young people, including his own son who was close by, following a coaching session at a sports centre in Omagh on Wednesday night.
The policeman’s identity was revealed by Assistant Chief Constable Mark McEwan on BBC Radio Ulster’s Good Morning Ulster programme.
