Slain detective was from 'police family'

A Garda officer shot dead during a robbery in Co Louth was part of a dedicated police family – his widow, two brothers and extended family are also members of the Gardaí.

Detective Garda Adrian Donohoe, 41, a father-of-two was gunned down half a mile from home as he tried to stop raiders escaping with cash from a Credit Union close to the border town of Dundalk, Co Louth.
