Two men, aged 55 and 53, have been arrested on suspicion of his murder, while two men, aged 53 and 45, have been held on suspicion of assisting an offender.

Mr O'Brien's family said they were "absolutely devastated" at his death and vowed to "cherish every memory" of him.

They said: "We have been left with a massive hole in our hearts which will never heal.

"As a family we will cherish every memory good and the bad.

"His memory will live through us all, forever our Jack and forever 27."
