Kevin McAteer condemns the recent attack on 5 members of NRC

 Independent Newry City Councillor Kevin McAteer has condemned the recent attack on 5 members of Newry Rainbow Community and has called it an attack on the entire community.

Speaking on the issue the Independent Councillor stated:
“I fully condemn this attack on members of Newry Rainbow Community , this is without a doubt an attack on the entire community. The incident occurred following the gay pride ball at the end of such a successful pride week. Pride week was extremely successful and the NRC organised a wonderful event and this attack is nothing short of disgraceful. I hope those attacked make a full recovery and I call on anyone with any information to come forward.”
