32-year-old David Byrne from Crumlin was killed after a gang, armed with automatic weapons, stormed the Regency Hotel in Drumcondra in broad daylight.
A man hunt is now underway for those involved – detectives say up to four attackers could be at large – two of whom were dressed as Gardaí, while one was disguised as a woman.
They are also appealing for information on a car found burnt out at the Charlemont Estate in Marino.
