Thousands protest at gangland violence

THOUSANDS of people took part in yesterday’s protest march against gangland violence in Limerick.

Most of the mass gathering wore red as a mark of solidarity with the family of Roy Collins, the latest murder victim of the city’s feuding gangs.

The protest was organised by Stephen Collins, father of the 35-year-old businessman who was shot dead in the family owned pub/arcade in Roxboro Shopping centre on April 9.
