Description

On December 27, 1997, loyalist gunmen unleashed a hail of bullets at the entrance of a packed out disco in Northern Ireland.

The ruthless attack at the Glengannon Hotel in Co Tyrone left one man dead and three others seriously injured.

The shooting was in revenge for the INLA prison murder of Loyalist Volunteer Force (LVF) leader Billy Wright just hours earlier.

Ruairi Cummings was just 17 when he witnessed the horrors of that night.

His father Christy was gunned down in front of his very eyes. His injuries left him paralyzed for life.

Almost 25 years later, the Cummings family are still fighting for justice, and the truth, over the night that changed their lives forever.
