More than 20 questioned over grandfather’s killing in feud

GARDAÍ have interviewed more than 20 people in connection with the brutal killing of a 51-year-old grand-father which was sparked by a feud between rival families.

It is expected more people will be interviewed in the coming days about the killing of Gerard Delaney, who was stabbed and beaten to death following a mass brawl outside a pub in a Cork city suburb in the early hours of December 27.

Mr Delaney had been babysitting his grandchildren at his Mahon home with his wife, when he got a call that his relatives needed help following a row that started earlier that night between themselves and members of the Crinnion family.
