‘That bullet could as easily have hit him in the head’

THE mother of the five-year-old Limerick boy who was shot on Sunday night, yesterday gave a chilling account of the brutal attack.

Olivia Crawford, 31, who is pregnant with her fourth child, said she did not realise her son Jordan had been shot until he collapsed in a pool of blood on the kitchen floor of their home in Southill.

Olivia was speaking at the Sunshine children’s ward of the Mid-Western Regional Hospital where Jordan is recovering.
