Double gang deaths

There were fears that the country’s bloodiest crime feud has re-ignited after two gangland figures were gunned down in the same day.

At 8pm, 34-year-old Declan O’Reilly from Dublin’s south inner city was shot dead about 100m from South Circular Road mosque. It is understood he was shot twice in the neck with a shotgun.

A dark car was seen leaving the scene, and was found on fire on O’Curry Avenue.
