Gardai renew appeal for help in solving 2014 murder of young man in Meath

Gardai investigating the 2014 murder of a young man in Co Meath have issued a renewed witness appeal.

Paul Gallagher, 26, was found dead after being shot in a field at Ballymacan, Slane on July 28, 2014. At around 10.30pm, Paul travelled to Ballymacan, Collon with another man.

In Tullyallen village, prior to arriving at Ballymacan, they were joined by two other men. Paul's body was discovered in a field two days later. He had died of several gunshot wounds.

A garda spokesman said: "An Garda Siochana made appeals for public information at the time and on ‘Crimecall’ in September 2014. A number of arrests have been made in relation to this investigation but to date no person has been charged with his murder.

"Investigating gardai continue to appeal for information in this case and believe that a number of people have yet to come forward who may now be in a position to assist in bringing those responsible to justice.

"With the passage of time some person may now be in a position to provide information to investigating gardai that they could not provide at the time, or maybe some person who did provide information at the time may be now in a position to provide further information.

"Anyone with information can contact investigating gardai at Navan Garda Station 046 9036100, the Garda Confidential Line 1800 666 111 or any Garda Station."
