Man found shot in head

A YOUNG man was in a serious condition yesterday after being shot in the head and dumped out of a car.

Gardaí are working on a number of theories and said that the youth may have been shot following an accidental discharge of the firearm.

“He may have been accidentally shot. That is one of the lines of inquiry,” said one officer. “He may have been shot when handing the gun from one person to another.”
