Wayne goes home to Craigavon

The body of a motorcycle road racer killed during the Manx Grand Prix was escorted home by bikers, after it arrived back in Northern Ireland.

Twenty-year-old Wayne Hamilton died during the Junior Manx Grand Prix last Monday, and yesterday (Sunday) morning he was taken back to Belfast.

His family had asked bikers in Northern Ireland to provide an escort along the M1 motorway back to Craigavon.

Those taking part in the welcome paraded past a convoy of family members.
