A new surge in violence in Northern Ireland has claimed its latest victim; a policeman was killed in County Armagh after he responded to a call from a "vulnerable" member of the public.
The officer was "gunned down" on Monday night as he got out of a car at Lismore Manor, in Craigavon, police said.
No-one has admitted to killing the officer, who is yet to be named. Police chief Sir Hugh Orde called it a "sad day" for Northern Ireland's force.
Politicians condemned the shooting, which happened two days after two soldiers were killed in Antrim.
The soldiers were shot dead outside an army base on Saturday in an attack the Real IRA has said it was behind, the BBC reported.
It is the first killing of a serving police officer in the province for more than 10 years and happened on a predominantly Catholic estate.
