William Carson

William Carson 32 years, Rosevale Street, Cliftonville Road, north Belfast, shot and fatally injured in his home on the evening of 24 April 1979. He died in hospital several hours later. 

The two gunmen responsible for the killing had called at Mr Carson’s home earlier that evening asking if he was in and were told by his two children that their father and mother were out. The same men called an hour later and sat with the children until their father and mother returned home and then shot Mr Carson in his hallway.
