A police officer was shot dead in Northern Ireland late on Monday 9 March 2009, just hours after Prime Minister Gordon Brown said the killing of two British soldiers (on Sat 7 March 2009)  would not derail the peace process. The officer was shot dead when on patrol in Lismore Manor, Craigavon, around 25 miles southwest of Belfast. He and another officer are reported to have been sitting in their car when attacked.
