A MAN in his 40s has been shot dead in what is believed to be related to a long-standing gangland feud in north Dublin.

The man, who was named locally as David Thomas from Finglas south, was shot outside the Drake Inn pub in Finglas village at 8.40pm last night.

He is understood to have been shot twice at close range during the incident, and had died by the time officers arrived at the scene.
