Traveller died from 'close-range gunshot wounds'
A traveller who was murdered in his bed during a dawn raid on his caravan by two men wearing balaclavas, died from two close-range gunshot wounds to his chest, a jury at the Central Criminal Court heard today.
State pathologist Prof. John Harbison told the jury that Mr Thomas Harty (aged 26) was a "fit young man who died from blood loss due to the accumulation of one litre of blood in his lung due to a gun shot wound".
