GARDAÍ suspect a middle-aged man was shot dead after a drink-fuelled row erupted at a party.

Eddie Flanagan, 49, was shot in the head at least once from a handgun at an apartment in Santry, north Dublin on Wednesday night.

A 51-year-old man, thought to be the owner of the apartment, presented himself to a Garda station at noon yesterday. He was arrested under firearms legislation and can be detained for up to a week.
