Today, gardaí discovered the head of the victim in a burnt-out car at Trinity Terrace, near Croke Park, in the early hours of this morning.Detectives, who are now basing the investigation out of Drogheda Garda Station, are probing the theory that the teenager got too deeply involved in the current feud and carried out attacks on the homes of gang rivals.
At this time, gardaí believe there is “no coincidence” that parts of the teenager’s body are being dumped in Coolock and in the north-east inner city of Dublin. While investigations are at a very early stage, gardaí are working on the theory that the murder and dismemberment was in retaliation for the murder of drug dealer Richard Carberry in November last year.
