Noah Donohoe Inquest: Officer Attending Disappearance 'Saw No Sign of Crime'
The inquest focuses on conflicting accounts of witness Connor McConnell's police calls after Noah Donohoe's June 2020 drowning, with police disputing the timing of contacts.
- On Monday, the inquest at Belfast Coroner's Court resumed after a week's break and is now in its fourth week, examining the death of 14‑year‑old Noah Donohoe found in June 2020.
- Noah left home to meet two friends at Cave Hill but the meet-up was cancelled and he cycled across the city, discarding possessions including a laptop and all his clothes.
- On Sunday, June 21, witness Connor McConnell said he saw a male cycle past naked from his mother's partner's house and later found shoes, shorts, boxers, a T-shirt, and hoodie on the footpath.
- PSNI barrister Donal Lunny KC said records show first contacts on Monday and a second on Tuesday, while police delayed Mr McConnell's statement nearly two years, the inquest heard.
- A PSNI constable said he recovered the bicycle and clothing at Northwood Road, seized the bike and bagged clothes without sealing them for dog unit access, and denied any exhibits were lost.
