A 39-year-old man has died after a late night shooting in Co Meath that gardaí suspect is linked to the ongoing feud between two gangs based in Drogheda, Co Louth. The man received a number of gunshot wounds and he was removed by ambulance to Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital in Drogheda. Gardaí suspect the vehicle was used in the attack and that those involved likely switched to another vehicle to escape the area. They are particularly anxious to hear from road users with camera footage who were in the area at the time of shooting. While he was the first man to be killed in the feud, a number of others have been shot and wounded but survived.
