Jim Donegan: CCTV Footage Shows Gunman Walking Beside Pupils
New CCTV footage has been released which shows the gunman who killed Jim Donegan outside a school in west Belfast walking beside unsuspecting pupils.
Mr Donegan, 43, was shot eight times as he sat in his red Porsche Panamera on the Glen Road on Tuesday, 04 December.
PSNI Detective Chief Inspector Pete Montgomery said: "The chilling CCTV footage shows him walking down the Glen Road before stopping outside Christian Brothers Secondary School.
"He then activates and waits at the pedestrian crossing for the 'green man' before walking casually across the road in front of schoolchildren.
"He then shoots Jim and, while fleeing from the scene, walks out in front of cars - holding his hand up to stop them - before jogging back along the Glen Road and into Clonelly Avenue, where he disappears."
A dissident republican is a main element of enquiry.
Police are appealing to anyone with information to contact them.
