Hundreds of mourners gathered to pay their last respects last Thursday at the funeral of a Royal Navy officer shot dead on a nuclear submarine. Father-of-four Lieutenant Commander Ian Molyneux, who was from Standish in Wigan, died after being shot during an incident on board HMS Astute when it was docked in Southampton on April 8. He died from his wounds. Royal Navy sailors in uniform, many colleagues of Lt Cdr Molyneux during his 20 years in the Senior Service, lined the streets outside the Sacred Heart Church as the funeral cortege arrived for the midday service in Wigan.
