Been updated I guess since you posted.

Though normally once an arrest has been made, there's no immediate relevance to any background or description of any kind, and it's an exception to say who. Some outlets will report but others won't especially if the police don't mention it.

Apparently Loyalists in their areas have ordered all businesses to close this evening & asked men to get out in dark clothing and block road junctions.

Wait & see I expect.
