'No investigation yet' into how CCTV footage of Gareth Hutch murder was made public

Two men are seen shooting him before escaping on foot.

CCTV FOOTAGE SHOWING the moment Gareth Hutch was shot dead yesterday morning is being widely shared online.

The 35-year-old taxi driver and father-of-one was gunned downed in the car park of the Avondale House flat complex in Dublin’s north inner city by two men.

He was a nephew of Gerry ‘The Monk’ Hutch, and the seventh victim of an ongoing feud between the Hutch and Kinahan gangs.

A number of shots were fired during the incident and the men attempted to leave the scene in a black 5 series BMW, with the registration 02 D 39051, but soon after got out and made their escape on foot.

A garda spokesperson said it is not clear where the CCTV footage originated from and no investigation is currently under way as to how it was made public.

The spokesperson said gardaí are “examining all CCTV footage from the area” and appealing for anyone with information to come forward.

“If there is an offence disclosed it will be investigated,” they added.

A man was arrested in connection with the murder after handing himself into gardaí yesterday evening. He is being detained at Mountjoy garda station.

    Very strange headline from PA / The Journal. Scottish independence movement is not at an end and won’t be until Scotland gains its independence again.

    Constant moaning while they are funded by Westminster. And to say that he still in his heart and soul believes in Scottish Independence just shows how out of touch he is. At least his constituents seem to know which side their bread is buttered on. In comparison it seems he wants it buttered on both sides

    And SF is the 5th largest party in the UK! You can’t control borders if you don’t own your own borders. A United Ireland is inevitable

    If Shin Fein are serious about a United Ireland they need to start trying to convince the nationalists/catholics /wolf tone cd owners it’s a good idea.

    The Scottish Independence movement has NOT collapsed. Independence led by 2% in the last poll a fortnight ago. It is simply much more than the SNP, which got a huge vote, just not as huge as Labour and the first past the post system flipped them out. Other parties and voters also support independence.

    @Vincent Wallace: do you not think winning nearly two-thirds of the seats with a little more than one-third of the vote is odd? Do you not think the Liberal Democrats getting fewer votes than Reform but more than ten times as many seats is odd?

    Just a few years ago, the UK appeared to be falling apart over Brexit and under Johnson and Truss. That moment is gone now but it would be very foolish to think it couldn’t come back again. Anything is possible.

    The Nicola Sturgeon debacle coupled with wanting to get the tories out of power right now lead to their poor showing. I doubt it’s changed one persons mind on independence. It’s just on the back burner until they can regroup.

    The Scots never really wanted independence, only the romantic right to want it. I mean come on! They had their chance once, and said no. Put the independence question to bed and move on.

    All the SNP need is a new leader to continue the legacy of the past, perhaps Shane Codd or Rob Herring.
