Father of one Eric Cummins, 29, was gunned down in the drive of his home in Oldcourt, Ballincollig, last Saturday night.

Gardaí said yesterday they have traced the gunman’s getaway car to Ballyphehane. Detectives stopped motorists in that part of the city last night. They also mounted simultaneous checkpoints in the Oldcourt area close to where Mr Cummins was shot.
