Limbs discovered in Dublin canal as part of murder inquiry

The limbs, which were found inside a number of bags, were sent for autopsy and DNA analysis to confirm if they are the remains of the 33-year-old father from Clondalkin, west Dublin.

Gardaí hope to get the results this morning and will wait to see if the tests also give an indication as to the cause of Mr O’Brien’s death.
