• DPP directs no prosecution in Ballymun double murder Murder (two counts) · Co. Dublin

  On 16 August 2017, a gunman shot and killed Antoinette Corbally, 47, and Clinton Shannon, 30, in the hallway of a house on Balbutcher Drive, Ballymun, north Dublin, in what was believed to be a botched gangland hit targeting Corbally's brother Derek Devoy. Corbally's pregnant 18-year-old daughter Andrea was grazed by a bullet, and Brian Moran was treated at Mater Hospital for a gunshot wound to the leg. The suspect, a man in his 30s, fled in a series of vehicles tracked north towards Newry, Co Down. The investigation was led by Detective Inspector Jim McDermott, with files submitted to the DPP in 2022. In March 2025, the DPP directed no prosecution in relation to both deaths, a decision the Shannon family is appealing.
