GAA player's home in brick attack
Darren Graham's father was killed by the IRA
A house in County Fermanagh where a Protestant GAA player lives was attacked at the weekend, it has emerged.
Darren Graham quit playing over sectarian abuse, but returned after receiving messages of support.
He was in the house in Lisnaskea with his mother, daughter and a friend when a brick came through the window. No-one was injured.
Two wheeled bins outside the property were also set alight.
A PSNI spokesman said that detectives were investigating several possible motives.
Mr Graham, 25, has represented his county in Gaelic football and hurling.
Father
He was a baby when his father, who was in the UDR, was killed by the IRA.
Fermanagh and South Tyrone MP Michelle Gildernew condemned the weekend attack.
"I want to offer him my full support and encouragement," said the Sinn Fein representative.
"The vast majority of people across Fermanagh would also condemn these attacks and support Darren in the stance he has taken in participating in the GAA and representing the county."
