Four released in connection with Tallaght shooting

Four people arrested in connection with the fatal shooting of a man in west Dublin on Friday have been released without charge.

A 16-year-old girl and three men were being questioned in connection with the death of Seamus 'Shay' O'Byrne in Tallaght.

His girlfriend suffered a gunshot wound to the leg.

The four were detained at Terenure, Tallaght and Rathfarnham garda stations.

The 27-year-old was gunned down as he sat in a car outside his house in Tymon North Park.

Files are being prepared for the Director of Public Prosecutions.

O’Byrne was gunned down as he returned home and his murder is being linked to an ongoing bloody feud between of Dublin’s major criminal gangs based in the Crumlin and Drimnagh areas in the south of the city.
