Sources believe shooting could be linked to ongoing feud

Senior detectives believe the incident, which took place in the Corboy area on Tuesday night, is the latest episode in one of the county's long running Traveller related feuds.

No one was injured in the incident which took place at around 10:30pm when a number of shots were fired through the front window of a house.

One other line of inquiry gardaí are pursuing is the possibility the shooting may be linked to a drugs dispute between two rivalling factions.

Gardaí have appealed for witnesses and for anyone who may have observed the incident to contact Granard Garda Station at (043) 668512.
