Arrests expected in snooker cue murder case

GARDAÍ are expected to make arrests in connection with the savage murder of a man earlier this month.

David Rooney, 35, died after being assaulted by a gang of men, during which he was stabbed in the head with a sharpened snooker cue.

Detectives suspect the brutal attack stemmed from a minor drug dispute and a money debt of as little as €300-€400.
