Conroy defends gardaí in fatal Lusk operation

Garda Commissioner Noel Conroy has mounted a strong defence of the gardaí who killed two post office raiders in Lusk, Co Dublin, last week.

Thirty-three-year-old Colm Griffin and 24-year-old Eric Hopkins, both from Dublin's north inner city, were shot dead by gardaí who were lying in wait for them when they tried to rob the local post office.
