Drug addict remanded for shooting bouncer

A drug addict who shot a bouncer in the face before assaulting two arresting gardaí faces up to life imprisonment when he is sentenced later this month at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.

Wayne McNally (aged 24) shot the bouncer after he was refused entry into Hush Nightclub in the Red Cow Inn. He then escaped in a stolen car and was later seen by two gardaí on patrol in Dolphin’s Barn. They chased him and he pulled a clothes line down on one and punched the other before he was arrested.
