Three men were being treated in hospital last night after separate shooting incidents in south Dublin.
Two men were injured, one seriously, when attackers on a motorbike opened fire on them at a house in Knocknarea Road, Drimnagh, shortly before 5pm yesterday.
An earlier shooting happened at St Martin's Park, Kimmage, on Sunday night, where a 25-year-old man received gunshot wounds while sitting in his car.
A Garda spokeswoman said there was no evidence to suggest the incidents were related.
In the Drimnagh shooting, the men targeted were servicing a vehicle in a driveway when a "moped or motorbike" with two men on board approached them.
The pillion passenger fired a number of shots at the men, who were taken to St James's Hospital with gunshot wounds.
Last night, a spokeswoman for the hospital said both men were "stable".
Gardaí at Sundrive Station are appealing for information from anyone who saw two men on a moped or motorcycle, wearing blacked-out helmets, in the Drimnagh area between 4.50pm and 6pm.
In the Kimmage attack, the injured party was sitting in his car outside a house when he was shot at least once in the chest.
He too was taken to St James's, where his condition last night was also described as stable.
