    A Traveller gang also wanted the Extortion crew out of the picture according to the Sunday World.

    They wouldn't have the intelligence to pull off a proper hit

    Whoever the trigger man was, he wasn't very good either if he couldn't eliminate the target at point blank range.

    The Independent are just climbing all over themselves to say it's the feud as usual, Get a few more days stories out of it and sell a few more copies.

    They have been selling stories on exaggerated "feuds" now for how many years?

    Not that we didn't know anyway, but the Independent has decided to name the victim.
    I presume that means they don't think he'll survive?

    EDIT -
    And it says "Two of his closest pals have fled the country after being investigated over the murder of Gareth Hutch – the eighth in the bloody Hutch/Kinahan feud."

    It's almost like there's a plan to overwhelm the guards with so many murders, that they just can't cope. Great to see mini cabs, armed checkpoints, suspect charges, and whatever else they announced and I can't remember after Garreth Hutches murder are having an effect anway.

    Do we know anymore about who was allegedly responsible for the shooting ? If its an internal republican feud ? Or is it a hutch reprisal shooting ? Or could it be RIRA retaliation for Michael bars shooting ?

    My money is that it was an IRA trigger man, simply no way they will let any INLA away with setting up one of their own to be murdered. With 4 sides in this, this is going to get far worse.

    Kinahans already have so much control over the other gangs they wouldn't need to go pulling a stunt like that... Money talks in this game

    Could be. But I'd say most likely either hutches hitting back or rival republicans. The Kinhans already have so much control with their money they wouldn't need to go pulling a stunt like that.

    Are Fat Freddie and Whacker Duffy okay with each other?

    Whacker Duffys crew are now back in the news. The papers claim they are involved with the "New INLA" but are they? Interesting to see who done it or why the man today was shot. Would highly doubt it was the Hutch faction

    Douglas no doubt was killed by the Cartel. Only they would waste a €60,000 car on that. The fact one of their main men told him he was safe enough to walk the streets, is certainly logical. If he felt he was in danger he wouldnt have been out walking his dogs so much and in the area.

    You dont seriously think they paid that much for a stolen car do you?

    I was wondering that particular issue a while ago before this happened. They were at one time in a big feud. They are both dangerous psychopaths capable of extreme violence on a whim so who knows what the score is there.

    Thats not what Im getting at, I mean only they would bother using such a high value car in a hit at this point IMO

    They are sending a message out. They are the big dogs. The Hutches drive taxis and transit vans, these lads torch 60k cars for a laugh.

    I would say all the crews are in contact with a few pro car thieves and probably even have some among their ranks... But yeah I would say that killing was cartel doing.

    How much would a car like that sell for, after being stolen?

    Few hundred worth of heroin to whichever addict it was that stole it. Some heavy drug addicts support their habit solely by stealing cars and selling them on to gangs...

    Nothing, it's not high-end enough to be worth the trouble. I doubt it was a factor. They just picked a car they figured would do the job. Not much to be read into it.

    I doubt it was the Hutch's that did this either. It seems a bit of a risk, for essentially nobody of any real value, also seeing as he is involved with Whacker, they might want him on their side, unless Whacker and Fat Freddy have smoothed things over, which would be a weird one also. Surely there would be trust issues there.
    It makes more sense that it could be unrelated.

    So to recap, the suspects in this case are either the Kinahans, the Hutches, the New ira, his own crew, or the travellers he was beefing with a while back.

    Should be straightforward enough so.

    Not really. If these numbers continue, for the rest of the year it'll be a new record.
