On 3 March 1991, members of the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) Mid-Ulster Brigade opened fire at Boyle’s Bar in Cappagh, County Tyrone, killing three members of the Provisional IRA and a Catholic civilian. No one has ever been charged in connection with the attack, which was widely attributed to Billy Wright, a senior UVF figure based in Portadown.
