Two men due in court in relation to death of suspected restaurant gunman
Their court appearance comes a day after a man who received gunshot wounds in the attack died in hospital.
Two men are due before court on Friday in relation to the death of a suspected gunman who was assaulted following a shooting in a Dublin restaurant on Christmas Eve.
Tristan Sherry, who was one of two suspected gunmen involved in the shooting, suffered fatal injuries after being tackled and assaulted inside the premises in Blanchardstown after the shooting.
One man has already appeared in court charged with Mr Sherry’s murder.
Two other men who were arrested by gardai are due to appear before a sitting of Blanchardstown District Court on Friday morning.
The man who was shot in the initial gun attack inside Browne’s Steakhouse in Blanchardstown died on Thursday, gardai said.
Jason Hennessy Snr, who was in his late 40s, sustained multiple gunshot wounds.
Mr Hennessy, who was known to gardai, was treated at Dublin’s Connolly Hospital and then transferred to the city’s Mater Hospital, where he died.
A second murder investigation has been launched after Mr Hennessy’s death.
Two gunmen had entered the busy restaurant at about 8pm on December 24 and opened fire.
Last week, Michael Andrecut, 22, of Sheephill Avenue, Corduff, appeared at a special sitting of the Criminal Courts of Justice in Dublin charged with Mr Sherry’s murder.
