Police have also said there is no ongoing risk to the public but the Drummeer Road remains closed.

Democratic Unionist Party assembly member Deborah Erskine has urged people not to speculate about the incident, while “police carry out their work”.

“This is truly shocking and has stunned the entire community,” she added.

“The area of Maguiresbridge where this has happened is a rural, quiet area and everyone is deeply affected by what has happened this morning.”

Erskine said the incident has “caused widespread shock, not just in Maguiresbridge, but right across Fermanagh”.

“This is a small rural area, this road is a very rural road, things like this are completely unexpected in this part of the world.

“The foremost in all in all of our thoughts will be with the family and what they have had to deal with today,” Erskine told BBC News NI.

Sinn Féin MP Pat Cullen said her “thoughts are with the victims and their families at this tragic time”.

“The community is heartbroken, as we are, and totally shocked at the news as any community would be.”

“They’re all human beings as well, it’s unimaginable how much this will impact on them,” Cullen told BBC News NI.

Justice Minister Naomi Long said her “thoughts and sympathies are with those affected” following the “horrific incident”.

She also asked people not to “speculate, online or elsewhere, as to the details surrounding it while it is being investigated”.
