A Sligo man who was shot dead following an incident at a house in Australia had been looking forward to spending the rest of his life “in the best country in the world” as a citizen.
Named locally as Damian Conlon, the 31-year-old died at the scene from a gunshot wound - despite efforts by NSW Ambulance paramedics to save his life. An investigation into his death has now been launched by officers from Chifley Police District in NSW.
Police were called to the property on Jenolan Street shortly after 8am on Thursday where they found Mr Conlon suffering a gunshot wound.
