Gun victim ‘in wrong place at wrong time’

A TALENTED traditional Irish musician was looking forward to collecting a new set of uileann pipes on the day he was gunned down in a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Daniel Fitzgerald, 25 of Cloughadreen, Old Pallas, Co Limerick, was shot dead by a member of Limerick’s Collopy gang family in December 2009.

Kenneth Collopy, 20, of Kilonan, Ballysimon, was earlier this year jailed for life for the murder.
