A 22-year-old man has been arrested over the shooting of a father of two in Dublin almost three months ago.

THE father-of-two gunned down in front of his children in daylight in north Dublin was a suspect in a local killing and involved in the gang of murdered drugs criminal Eamon Dunne.

Gardaí are appealing for witnesses to the latest gangland-style shooting in Dublin.

Gardaí are continuing their investigation into the shooting dead of a man in North Dublin last night.

A taxi-man has been ordered by the Dublin Circuit Criminal Court to pay compensation of £30,000 to a bank official he seriously injured during an assault in 1997.
