Hundreds of mourners are expected to gather this evening for the removal of the family-of-four found dead in their burned-out home in Co Wexford over the weekend.

Diarmuid and Lorraine Flood were found dead along with their children, six-year-old Mark and five-year-old Julie, in the village of Clonroche.

The couple had both died of gunshot wounds, while toxicology tests are being carried out in an effort to determine the cause of the children's deaths.

The four bodies will all be removed to the small local church, St Clements, at 7pm this evening ahead of their funeral tomorrow at the adjoining cemetery.
