He said a dedicated team of detectives are working hard to establish the events that led to such a senseless act of violence, saying the police are reviewing CCTV footage from the area and are carrying out a forensic examination of the scene.
Grogan added that
“We know Harry was with a group of friends near the viewing platform on Primrose Hill where they had gathered to celebrate the New Year. It is here where we believe Harry became involved in an altercation with devastating consequences.

“Primrose Hill was very busy at the time and I believe there are people who witnessed the incident who have not yet spoken to police.
“It is vital that we build a clear picture of the moments leading up to, and immediately after, Harry’s murder and I need anyone with information about the altercation, or the attack, to contact us immediately.”
