Addict victim was jailed over €1.2m drugs haul
Michael Hendrick, 36, with an address in Clonee, north Dublin, was fatally shot in Clondalkin, west Dublin, as he sat in the driver’s seat of his car. He is the fifth gangland murder victim so far this year.
A passenger in the car was uninjured when a lone gunman approached the driver’s side and fired a number of shots in through the driver’s window. The shooting took place at 8.40pm on Monday at Melrose Park, in the Bawnogue area, close to where the victim grew up and lived most of his life.
