Man arrested in connection with shooting of Jordan Davis in Darndale, north Dublin

A man has been arrested in connection with the fatal shooting of Jordan Davis.

Davis, 22, was gunned down on May 22 at a laneway adjacent to Our Lady Immaculate National School in Darndale at around 4pm.

He was shot several times as he walked his four-month-old baby in a pram only hours after his friend Sean Little's body was found beside a burning car at Rowans Little, Walshestown on the night of May 21.

It is understood he was shot once in the head and once in the chest.

Davis was buried earlier this month following a funeral in Darndale.
