Shoppers at a local centre were left running for their lives after shots were allegedly fired during a broad daylight gun attack.
It is alleged that one gunman sprayed bullets in the carpark of the Deansrath Shopping Centre in Clondalkin at around 4pm on Tuesday.
Innocent members of the public were almost caught in the shock crossfire but thankfully nobody was injured during the incident.
The Echo reports that Gardai arrived at the scene and spent hours conducting forensic investigations with a witness appeal launched by the local station.
Where the alleged shooting took place is just metres away from a local national school which is situated across the road.
