Everton honours Plymouth shooting victims

Lee Martyn was 'true blue' football fan

A father and his young daughter who were murdered by a gunman in Plymouth last month have been remembered at a Premiership football match. 

Lee Martyn, aged 43 and a committed Everton fan, was killed in Keyham as he took an evening stroll with three-year-old Sophie.

On Monday, both sets of supporters in the Everton - Burnley match at Goodison Park applauded in the 43rd minute as an image of father-and-daughter appeared on a pitchside screen. 

Mr Martyn was described as a "true Blue" Everton fan.

He was killed along with Sophie and three others, including the gunman's mother, near his home in the Keyham area of Plymouth on 12 August.
