Detectives from Serious Crime Branch investigating the sectarian murder of Paul McCauley in Londonderry have arrested a 24 year old man in the city this morning.

Paul died last month in a care facility almost nine years after an attack in July 2006.

Paul was 29 and attending a summer BBQ at the rear of a house in Chapel Road on 15 July 2006. At 3.20am on 16 July, only three people remained at the BBQ. A group of up to 15 people came from out of the bushes and attacked Paul and two of his friends. After the assault the group made off in the direction of Irish Street.
