Gardaí investigating the murder of Shane Geoghegan recovered ammunition and drugs during a search in Limerick this morning.
Around 50 rounds of ammunition and cannabis worth an estimated €25,000 were found on open ground at Ballinacurra Weston.
Mr Geoghegan (28), was shot dead earlier this month.
Gardaí believe the murder is linked to an ongoing feud between two Limerick gangs which has cost 14 lives in eight years. Detectives are working on the theory that the gunman was sent to kill a member of one of the gangs, but mistook Mr Geoghegan for the intended target and shot him instead.
A team 40 to 50 detectives are investigating and about 20 houses were searched earlier this month in Dublin, Cork and Limerick.
