A Louth man, who was the target of a taxi shooting in Drogheda, has said he has been forced to breach his bail conditions because his life is in danger. He said he does not want to show his face outside and is trying to be less predictable with his routine. He had been on bail but was arrested over the weekend after allegedly breaching his bail conditions, with his barrister arguing that these conditions have made him a target and a sitting duck. He said innocent people like a taxi man have been hurt. The defendant told the court it was unfair to punish him for taking precautions, and he asked the judge to change his bail conditions so his routine can be less predictable.
