Three teenagers died in the tragedy that occurred on Sunday.
Two men have been arrested following the tragedy in Cookstown that resulted in the death of a 17-year-old girl, a 17-year-old boy and a 16-year-old boy on Sunday night.
The incident occurred at the Greenvale Hotel in Cookstown on Saint Patrick’s Day, and two men will now be questioned as a result.
The men, aged 52 and 40, were taken into custody on Tuesday afternoon.
The PSNI issued a statement on Tuesday, which read: "Detectives from PSNI’s Major Investigation Team investigating the deaths of three teenagers Connor Currie, Lauren Bullock and Morgan Barnard at the Greenvale Hotel in Cookstown on Saint Patrick’s Day have arrested two men aged 52 and 40 earlier today, Tuesday 19 March, on suspicion of manslaughter.
"They have been taken to Dungannon Custody Suite for questioning."
CCTV footage has led to police estimating that
400 people were in the queue or the car park at the time of the reported crushing incident.
In a briefing on Tuesday, Detective Chief Superintendent Raymond Murray, Head of Serious Crime Branch in the PSNI urged witnesses to come forward.
He said: "A number of parents have indicated they are concerned that their children, who may have been underage, were trying to enter a licensed premises.
"I want to reassure you, the focus of our investigation is not the age of people who were at the event – it is about trying to find answers for the families of the three teenagers who tragically died – we need to know what you saw so the heartbroken families of Connor, Lauren and Morgan know what happened to their children."
After extending his sympathies to the families of three teenagers who tragically lost their lives, Murray said that police had traced the identities of over 160 witnesses and had already spoken to a number of young people.
“I want to thank everyone who has spoken with us so far, however, there is still a significant number of people who were there that night, in the queue, and I need them to come forward to speak to police so we can understand what happened," Murray said.
"Initial CCTV viewing would lead us to estimate that perhaps as many as 400 people were in the queue or car park at that time."
