Mother seeks return of car used after killing

The brutal killing of a Limerick breadman during his delivery run was recalled yesterday when the mother of the gunman sought a court order for the return of her car which was used by her son after the murder.

Daniel Treacy, aged 36, was shot dead on February 22, 2010, at a Topaz garage in Caherdavin. He was shot three times in the head and once in the groin.

Last October, John Coughlan, a 33-year-old electrician, of Pineview Gardens, Moyross, was jailed for life after being found guilty of the murder.
