Gardaí investigating the murder of 24-year-old Kane McCormack in County Meath have arrested a man in his 40s.

Mr McCormack's body was found in a field at Walterstown, Dunboyne in December 2017.

It is believed his murder may have been related to the ongoing gang feud in Dublin.

His father Noel Kirwan was shot dead in Clondalkin in December 2016.

This morning, Gardaí investigating Mr McCormack's death arrested a man in his 40s in the Dublin area.

He is being held at Ashbourne Garda Station.

Gardaí said it is the second arrest in relation to the investigation.
