Keith Branigan was shot as he laid decking due to 'friendship with leader of Drogheda gang'

A feud victim who was killed just over three years ago died from multiple gunshot wounds, an inquest has heard.

Keith Branigan, 29, was shot dead in broad daylight while working on decking at a caravan park in Clogherhead, Co Louth, on August 27, 2019. He was not considered a major criminal.

He is believed to have been targeted by associates of paralysed mob boss Owen Maguire because of his friendship with the leader of a rival Drogheda gang who is on the run abroad.
