A 24-year-old Limerick man is today beginning a life sentence in prison after he was found guilty of the murder of father-of-three Gareth Brosnan-Grant.

The partner of a Limerick man who was shot dead outside his home has denied that she incorrectly identified the man who is now on trial for the murder.

The brother of a Limerick man who was shot dead near his home has told a jury he saw the man accused of his murder standing close to the scene shortly before the shooting.

WHEN told a handgun had been found in garda searches of his back garden, a Limerick man, whose grandson is on trial for murder, tried to get at the weapon, the Central Criminal Court, sitting in Limerick heard.
