A man has been arrested and charged with murder, following the death of a Tipperary man, at his home in west London last weekend.
Mr James ‘JJ’ Donnelly aged 45, and a native of Childers Park, Thurles, Co Tipperary was located dead at his home in Station Road, Hayes, Hillingdon, London, after police were called to his address, around 10:00am on Saturday July 15th last.
We understand Mr Donnelly was located at the address with a slash wound, before being pronounced dead at the scene.
Following the discovery, police officers arrested a man a short time later, named as Mr Leo Price, with an address at Blair Close, Uxbridge, on suspicion of his murder.
The 22-year-old accused was taken to a west London police station where he was later charged with one count of murder and three counts of assaulting an emergency worker.
The deceased Mr Donnelly is a former member of the Irish army and served as a peace keeper overseas.
