Bomb Scare in Inner City Dublin

Ivan · 2008-03-25 13:59:38

Not sure exactly what the deal is, but its just down the road of where I'm based. We're in work and a few people thought they heard sirens, but we're still not sure... :p [edit] Breaking news have an article about it here: http://breakingnews.ie/ireland/mhojeyojkfey/ [/edit]

This attack is a reply to the two found in Crumin.^

Basically there's a feud between a major well-known drug dealer in Crumlin and the INLA Dublin leader (who we all know), the INLA lad lives around the Coombe so I presume this attack was aimed at him or one of his other main men around Dublin 8.

This is only getting started btw.

Declan "Whacker" Duffy - INLA

So at the moment, there is a three-way war going on, INLA-Crumlin Gang-Drimnagh Gang.

Never heard of him. Silly gangs. Wouldn't exactly call it a war though. Maybe a bit of fisty cuffs and a lot of Yor Ma's being thrown around willy nilly but not really Hiroshima stuff yet is it?

Well if you've been living around The Liberties for the last 5 years you know it's alot more, after Wayne Zambara was shot in a car at the back of St Teresa's Gardens just off Cork St, the can of worms opened.

And now with Mr.Duffy out of jail the INLA are now fighting for every piece of drug turf in the south inner city.

So enda1 may I suggest not talking about stuff you don't know anything about in future.

No I think I will continue. I have lived in Dublin for long enough to know its not exactly a warzone. Its one of the safest cities I have ever been to actually.

Totally agree Dublin as a whole isn't a warzone, but at times Dublin 8 and Dublin 12 can be and at the moment it is.

Just curious, but there has also been mention of feuding between settled traveller families in the area as well, what with the disruption in the church on Mourne road recently. Thought this was the cause of the pipe bombs in Crumlin last week. Is there any alliances with these families and the feuding gangs as well?

What's your knowledge of this Gavin.

Haven't any knowledge of that in all fairness, only know about the INLA and the 2 gangs as them all have some sort of operation in The Liberties. I'll try finding out though as I have a mate who lives on Mourne Rd just down from the chruch.

He was involved in the Ballymount 'bloodbath' around the turn of the millennium.

Old stomping ground was somewhere in Tallaght until he was jailed.

I'm guessing these have something to do with the INLA yet again, then again I haven't heard anything as of yet.

Yut Mr. Duffy has all to do with this as far as I know. And as for the trouble in the 17 years I'v lived in Dublin (all my life in The Liberties) I've only got trouble from the local scum.

The whole INLA thing seems to have kicked off again, somebody shot in Grumpy Jacks in The Coombe at around 10 tonight, passed it myself at 10.10 and the area was full of guards. Supposely the lad who was shot was never seen in the pub before and was shot 7 times, coming from my sources.;)

Although it says "Gardaí say there was nothing to indicate it was a 'gangland' shooting, other than the type of incident". it was indeed a gangland murder.

He died on the operating table after being shot 6 times in the back.
