The Troubles in Ballymoney

The Northern Irish Troubles resulted in 14 deaths in or near the County Antrim town of Ballymoney; the sole incident involving two or more fatalities was the Quinn brothers' killings in July 1998. The three Catholic brothers, aged 9, 10 and 11, were killed during a sectarian Ulster Volunteer Force petrol bomb attack on their home at Carnany Park, in a predominantly Protestant area of Ballymoney. The family had only moved into the house the previous week. The mother and her partner escaped, but couldn't save the three children.
