Victim’s brother recalls bullets flying past his head on Bloody Sunday

A campaigner has told how he narrowly avoided being shot on Bloody Sunday, the same day that his teenage brother was killed. John Kelly said the civil rights march in Londonderry on January 30 1972 was the first that 17-year-old Michael had ever attended. He also said their mother had been concerned about Michael’s safety at the event, and called out to him shortly before he was shot dead.
