The 71-year-old man was found badly injured in the living room of his flat on Thursday evening and died a short time later
An elderly man who died following an assault at a property in Co Tyrone last week has been named as Adam Krzan. Police said they received a report of a serious assault in a flat on the edge of the Lisnahull Estate in the Corrainey Park area of Dungannon at around 8pm on Thursday evening.
Mr Krzan, 71, was found with serious injuries on the living room floor of the property and one rapid response paramedic, two emergency crews, and an advanced paramedic were dispatched to the scene. Mr Krzan was treated at the scene but died a short time later. It is understood Mr Krzan was originally from Poland but police said he had lived in the Dungannon area for more than 20 years. On Friday, the Police Service of Northern Ireland confirmed they were treating Mr Krzan's death as murder and four arrests have been made in connection with their investigation. Two men, aged 33 and 30, arrested on suspicion of murder on Saturday remain in custody as well as a 27-year-old woman arrested on suspicion of perverting the course of justice. A 30-year-old man who was also arrested at the weekend has since been released on bail. Detective Chief Inspector Graham Orr said in a statement: “My thoughts at this time are first and foremost with Mr Krzan’s family and friends who are left trying to come to terms with their loss. “Our investigation is at an early stage and enquiries are ongoing to establish the exact circumstances. I am asking anyone with information, no matter how insignificant it may seem, to contact detectives on 101. Please quote reference 1576 of 27/02/25.” Photos and footage, including CCTV, mobile phone or dash cam footage, can be shared with police through the Major Incident Public Portal. A report can also be made using the online reporting form. Alternatively, information can also be provided to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or online at www.crimestoppers-uk.org which is 100 per cent anonymous and gives people the power to speak up and stop crime. Local Sinn Féin councillor Deirdre Varsani spoke last week of the impact of the incident on the community, noting the tight-knit nature of the area and how unsettling the event has been for residents. "It is upsetting for people here. This is such a tight-knit area and it does impact on a lot of people and unnerves a lot of people as well," she said. "Everybody is very concerned, but there has been a very high level of co-operation with the emergency services. People are just shocked. Everybody knows someone who lives here."
