Cases
latest first- Murder under investigation after Finglas gangland shooting Shooting (murder) · Co. Dublin
James Whelan, a 29-year-old father of one, was shot dead in the Deanstown Avenue area of Finglas, Dublin 11, at approximately 4.30am on Sunday 3 April 2022. Gardaí believe he was attempting a petrol bomb attack on a property connected to Mr Flashy when he was shot in the back while running. The killing is linked to a feud between two Finglas-based gangs, and Whelan's associates identified Mr Flashy as being behind the murder, though no one has been arrested or charged. A murder investigation was launched on 3 April 2022, the post-mortem was completed by Chief State Pathologist Dr. Linda Mulligan, and the scene was preserved for Garda Technical Bureau examination. Whelan was buried at Dardistown Cemetery on 13 April 2022, and the investigation remains ongoing with no arrests made.
