Man jailed for role in first feud killing escapes death

A MAN jailed for his part in the first killing in the vicious Limerick feud, has narrowly escaped death.

Paul Coffey, aged 32, was targeted in the city centre on Sunday night by a lone gunman. He was shot at, but escaped unhurt.

Coffey was released from prison in January after serving a seven-year sentence for the manslaughter of Eddie Ryan, aged 40, who had been shot dead in the Moose Bar in November 2000.
