Dundalk shooting victim 'lucky to be alive' as Gardai hunt for gunman in probe

The victim of Saturday evening's shooting in Dundalk is "lucky to be alive" - but Gardai are still hunting for the gunman.

Speaking to LMFM Radio, TD for Louth Ruairí Ó Murchú said the man was "lucky to be alive" after the shooting. "We're dealing with a man that all the neighbours speak about in very glowing references as being a quiet nice guy. This is utterly unacceptable and has to be condemned by all."
