Death
On 15 October 1980, several gunmen entered Bunting's home in the Lower Falls area of Belfast and shot him, his wife Suzanne and another INLA man, Noel Lyttle. Suzanne Bunting survived, but the two men were killed. The attack was claimed by the Ulster Defence Association (UDA) but the INLA claimed that the SAS were involved.
Bunting's father refused to let his son be buried with other dead INLA men and instead buried him in a family plot.
