Inquest may call Lusk robbery accused as witness

A man charged in connection with the attempted robbery of a post office in Dublin’s Lusk may be called as a witness at the inquests of two men shot dead by detectives during the incident, a coroner’s court heard today.

The family of Dublin men – Colm Griffin (aged 33) and Eric Hopkins (aged 24) – have objected to an adjournment until the criminal trial is finished.
