Gardaí say they have more than 300 lines of inquiry, while technical examinations are being carried out on the handgun and machine gun believed to have been used in the attack.

Speaking this afternoon, Chief Superintendent Lorraine Wheatley said: "I'd like to take the community that have come forward already with information - but I believe there's lots of other information out there that could assist us with our investigation.

"An innocent young man and a mother [were] killed [...] We're appealing to the community to come forward."

She explained they are particularly interested in the movements of two cars:
