Man shot multiple times in laneway attack

A MAN in his late 20s, who walked free from court earlier this year after being acquitted of murdering another prison inmate, was shot repeatedly in Dublin last night.

Declan O’Reilly, of Parnell Road in Crumlin, came under attack at a laneway linking Harold’s Cross Road to a nearby playing field at about 6.30pm.

He was taken to hospital by ambulance.
