DURING a high-speed incident involving feud gangs, a gunman opened fire while hanging out a car window weaving in and out of traffic, Limerick Circuit Court heard.

A defence laywer acting for one of five Limerick men accused of murdering Kieran Keane told the jury today that there is no “external evidence” linking his client to Mr Keane or any of the key scenes.

A number of media organisations were criticised in the Central Criminal Court today for what was termed "prejudicial" coverage in advance of a forthcoming Limerick murder trial.
