Two men arrested over brutal murder of Drogheda teen Keane Mulready-Woods

Two men have been arrested in connection to the brutal murder of Drogheda teenager Keane Mulready-Woods.

They were arrested this morning, Thursday, as part of the investigation into the murder of tragic Keane's murder in Co Louth.

A garda spokeswoman said: "They are detained at Drogheda and Balbriggan Garda Stations respectively under the provisions of Section 50 of the Criminal Justice Act, 2007."

Keane, 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.

The youngster's funeral was held in the Holy Family Church in Ballsgrove, Drogheda last week.
