The Arnon Street killings, also referred to as the Arnon Street murders or the Arnon Street massacre, took place on 1 April 1922 in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Six Catholic civilian men and boys, three in Arnon Street, were shot or beaten to death by men who broke into their homes. It is believed that policemen carried out the attack, members of either the Ulster Special Constabulary (USC) or Royal Irish Constabulary (RIC), in retaliation for the killing of an RIC officer by the Irish Republican Army (IRA).[1][2]

^Parkinson 2004, p. 245, "the shooting of a Brown Square Barracks-based RIC officer, George Turner...sparked the grisly events which were to occur in north Belfast early the next morning."
