Police have begun a criminal investigation into threats made to elected representatives in Newry, Mourne and Down. The threats appeared in a video circulating on social media, showing masked and armed men making intimidating statements.

Superintendent Corbett stated that police have already started enquiries to identify those featured in the video, adding that officers remain in close contact with local representatives throughout the district.
