    This is Taxi driver based information so take it with a pinch of salt.But.

    There has been a multiple shooting outside the Hanlons Corner pub on the NCR/Stoneybatter. Apparently there was one fatality but the gun man also injured 4/5 other people leaving the bar.

    Checked breakingnews.ie but no information on it.

    I heard what I thought were fire works and then non stop sirens around half two!! Was wondering what was up.


    Edit: Couldn't have been that amount of people if true, I only heard three bangs. Hoping it was fire works and not gun shots!! Pretty horrifying thing to happen so near if true.

    In STONYBATTER???

    That's hardly a hotbed of gangland thuggery.

    Seriously?

    Of course....if what you're saying is true it could be anything but gangland thuggery and could happen anywhere.

    I live across the road from Hanlons corner and heard the shots.
    I heard about 7 or 8 shots well spaced between each other. I'm almost sure one person was killed I heard one of the pub goers crying into her phone whilst describing the condition of his head.

    There was utter mayhem just after the shots the crowd outside were attacking cars that were passing by! Fire brigade were first on the scene.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,134 ✭✭✭Lux23


    I knew it must have been something bad, the cars I saw were skidding all over the road.

    I speak a little daily telegraph so can translate:

    The poster is lamenting the fact that people he assumes are either criminals and/or of a lower socio economic background are to be treated in a public hospital at the expense of those of us who contribute in taxes due to the violent ways of other criminals.

    Of course he's wrong, it sounds like the three girls were just bystanders and we know nothing about the man.

    To be fair, being a bystander doesn't mean they aren't criminals and/or of a lower socio-economic background.

    It doesn't mean they are either.

    I think they meant to say "“Has Anyone Really Been Far Even as Decided to Use Even Go Want to do Look More Like?"

    Irish Times has a short article about it now, more to come promptly I'd imagine: http://www.irishtimes.com/news/crime-and-law/four-shot-at-hanlon-s-corner-in-north-dublin-city-1.1559257

    This is bad and after those men were killed in Derry and Belfast this week as well. It's looking like gun crime is still rife north and south of the boarder!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,878 ✭✭✭arse..biscuits


    Lets pray that no cats were caught in the crossfire.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13 CarbonX


    Four masked ducks were reportedly seen fleeing the scene, heading in the direction of St. Stephen's Green.

    And its only up the road from where that scene was shot too!.

    That pubs is a cesspit of scum, one of the worse doors I've worked.. Funny enough it wasn't because there was much trouble, but because of the animals who drank there ~ mostly the upstairs crowd.

    So essentially what you are saying is "its a pity they survived and the gunman should have shot more of them" , that's lovely, really nice.

    I worked there once , was the most boring place ever.
    Myself and my mate told the security company never to send us there again cos they wanted two doormen but had two doors which was boring with my mate at the side door but kinda unsafe too.

    mid 2000's that was.

    We probably worked for the same crowd so.

    We'd just to cover the stairs, and stand inside the doors ~ very strange set up.

    We may have crossed paths but I didn't stick around very long, I detested working there.

    Out of curiosity where would you call that area apart from the NCR or Stoneybatter (its not that Stoneybatter has been gradually yuppifying in the last few years is it while that end hasn;t ;) )

    Funny how I don't think there would be as many jokes as if this happened outside L.Mulligans!

    The Pub is on the corner of the NCR and Old Cabra Road, you would need to go down Prussia Street and Manor Street before you would reach Stoneybatter.

    The cattle market is where Drumintee is, that's across the road from Hanlons.
    The General area is called Hanlons Corner.

    It's actually at the end of going on the Batter ,start at Ryan's of Queen St and drink in every pub you pass up Manor st Prussia st and end at Hanlons Corner
    I think it's about 13 pubs so hence going on the Batter.

    I drank there regularly enough when I lived on the north circular around 2003. Didn't seem particularly rough back then...

    I'm reasonably certain he didn't say that ...

    It was a great pub then but was sold since hence the decline, I'm surprised their hasn't been a shooting sooner?

    I'm reasonably certain that it was thrust of his argument, pub is (in his words) "a cesspool of scum" , inferring all those who frequent it are scum, and therefore deserve to be shot.
    My daughter lives with her mum very close to that pub, I have been in it a few times including at a confirmation, never seen any trouble, pub is clean, toilets are clean, food is ok, staff friendly enough.
    Hardly a "cesspoll of scum".

    Mulligan's is a nice pub with nice people drinking in it. Was in Hanlon's once, never again.

    Bit of a generalisation there for both pubs.

    Just because they can wear a suit doesnt mean that there isnt a high percentage of scrotes in there.
