Man dies after foiled robbery attempt

Garda Commissioner Fachtna Murphy has briefed the Minister for Justice on an incident in Lucan in which gardaí foiled an attempted raid on a cash-in-transit van.

A 27-year-old man with an address at Sherrif Street in Dublin City, died in hospital after he was shot by armed Gardaí.

The incident happened just after 12pm today during an operation by the Organised Crime Unit on the Foxborough Road.

A second man is understood to have serious injuries and is being treated in hospital.

Gardaí later arrested three men in the Neilstown area after they stopped what they believed was a get-away vehicle.
