Two charged after double shooting in Armagh

Two men have been charged with the murders of a husband and wife in Co Armagh.

The men, aged 31 and 46, are accused of shooting suspected drug dealers Hugh and Jacqueline McGeough in their Craigavon home last March.

The couple were found dead in their home at Legahory Court.

The two men will appear in court at Lisburn later. They are also charged with firearms offences.

A 19-year-old man arrested as part of the murder probe earlier this week has been released pending a report to prosecutors.
