DNA found on glove and wig beside sub-machine gun allegedly used to shoot 36-year-old dead

DNA matching a murder accused was identified on a glove and wig found alongside the sub-machine gun alleged to have been used in an attack that left a 36-year-old dead, a trial heard today, writes Eoin Reynolds.

Dr Edward Connolly of Forensic Science Ireland told the trial of Christopher McDonald that he tested a number of items found in a laneway four days after Keith Walker was shot 18 times in the car park of the Blanchardstown Pigeon Racing Club on Shelerin Road in Clonsilla on June 12, 2015.
