A shooting incident occurred in Rathmullen Park where two youths were targeted by a gunman. The attack, believed to be a misunderstanding related to a drug debt, left one youth with a leg injury. Gardai stated that the gunman was waiting for specific individuals but ended up shooting the wrong targets. They have confirmed that the incident is not connected to ongoing gang feuds in Drogheda. The investigation is ongoing, with reports of gunfire in the residential area at around 12:30 AM.
Gardai believe the incident was a case of mistaken identity and that the hit was ordered over a local small drug debt.
The gunman was waiting for people to come out of the house but it now looks like he shot at the wrong people and it was mistaken identity.
Gardai are investigating reports of the discharge of a firearm in a residential area in Rathmullen, Drogheda, Co Louth at around 12.30am on Monday, March 10.
