A priest has warned of further bloodshed if revenge is sought for the murder of a member of a biker gang in Co Limerick last weekend.

Father of one Andrew O'Donoghue (51) was shot dead outside a motorcycle club in a drive by gun attack last Saturday.

His funeral was held in Murroe earlier.

Fr Tom Ryan urged people to move away from violence.

Mr O'Donoghue was still alive when he was rushed to University Hospital Limerick - but was pronounced dead a short time later.

He was shot in the head as he closed a gate to the clubhouse.

Three men - two aged in their late 40s and one in his 20s - were arrested on Saturday night in connection with the fatal shooting.

And a fourth man, aged in his late 40s, was detained in Limerick city on Monday.
