County Tyrone man dies in Dublin pub shooting | |
(35 minutes later) | |
A man from Northern Ireland has died following a shooting in the north side of Dublin city on Monday night. | |
The shooting appears to be the latest murder in an on-going gangland feud. | |
The man, who is in his mid-30s and originally from County Tyrone, was shot in the Sunset House bar near Croke Park at about 21:30 local time. | |
His name has not been released, although it is believed he was known to Gardaí (Irish police) for involvement with dissident republicanism. | |
A burnt-out car, believed to have been used in the shooting, was found nearby in the Drumcondra area. | |
Gardaí are keeping an open mind about who murdered the man, but are not ruling out the possibility that the killing is linked to an on-going gangland feud. | |
