Kelly found guilty of Ballymun murder

A Dublin man had to be restrained by gardaí after he was convicted by a jury of the murder of Ian McConnell, who was shot at close range in the back of the head at a Ballymun tower block in December 2005.

As the jury delivered its unanimous verdict Stephen Kelly (aged 22) from Balcurris Road in Ballymun rose to his feet and shouted: “Shut the f*** up” at members of the McConnell family.
