Gardai launch crackdown on criminals associated with slain Sean Little

Gardai have launched a crackdown on criminals associated with slain drug dealer Sean Little and have arrested two men for suspected drug driving.

Little, 22, was one of two men blasted to death in gangland murders in Dublin in the space of 16 hours.

His friend and fellow drug dealer Jordan Davis, 22, died in a hail of bullets as he walked his four-month old baby near a community centre in Darndale on Wednesday afternoon.

Little was found with gunshot wounds next to his burning car by Dublin Fire Brigade in a laneway near Balbriggan in North County Dublin on Tuesday night.

Both men are believed to have been killed in a gang dispute over drug debts.

Little’s associates and pals, a number of whom are close associates of Kinahan gangster Mr Flashy in Finglas, have been threatening violence.

They threatened journalists at the scene in Balbriggan on Wednesday and Thursday but sources believe they may be planning a retaliatory strike.

A source explained: “These men, were stopped in convoy. The two drivers of the cars were roadside tested for cocaine and they tested positive.

“They were tested and returned preliminary findings that they were intoxicated - they will be charged with the road traffic offence."
