They posed for photographs before firing three shots into the air.

In a chilling message they stated ‘after that kneecappings are not an option it is death.’
The three men then disappeared back into nearby trees.
Óglaigh na h-Eireann has claimed responsibility for a series of attacks in recent years in the North West area.
They also were responsible for a bomb outside Derry’s Strand Road PSNI station in August 2010.
