Gunman may not have intended to kill Warren

Gardaí are investigating whether a man fatally shot last Friday was the victim of a punishment attack that went too far.

Christopher Warren, who was on temporary release from prison, was shot in the stomach in the Broadstone area of Dublin’s north inner city.

Meanwhile, detectives investigating the separate gun killing of Edward “Ned” Hamilton in rural Kildare on Saturday morning are examining whether or not he was deliberately killed — rather than a victim of an accidental discharge.
