Four shots fired at car, Dublin murder trial hears

The jury in the trial of a man accused of a fatal shooting on the Clontarf Road in 2005 has heard that four shots were fired into the passenger window of a vehicle which had tinted windows.

Garda Colm Mac Donnacha was one of the first gardaí on the scene of the shooting and told the Central Criminal Court that a Ford Mondeo was abandoned in the middle of the road with the driver’s door lying open. The lights were on and the key was in the ignition, but the engine was not running.
