Tragic murdered teen Keane Mulready-Woods will be laid to rest in Drogheda, Co Louth today

A tragic teenager who was brutally murdered in a Narcos-style attack will be laid to rest today.

Keane Mulready-Woods, 17, was stabbed and dismembered in the killing that shocked the nation last month.

It is understood Keane was abducted in the Ballsgrove area of Drogheda, Co Louth and taken to a house in Rathmullen Park where he was tortured, killed and cut apart.

The Narcos-style killers dumped his arms and legs in a holdall bag near a rival gangster’s home in Coolock, North Dublin on Monday night, January 13.

His head and hands were discovered in a burning car in Drumcondra two days later.
