Gardaí are appealing for information after a man was shot in south Dublin last night.
It's believed a submachine gun was used during the attack in Tallaght.
Shortly after 6.20pm yesterday evening Gardaí were alerted to reports of shots being fired in the Donomore Crescent area.
A man in his 30s was treated at the scene for an apparent gunshot wound and taken by ambulance to Tallaght University Hospital. However, his injures are not thought to be life-threatening.
The Irish Daily Star reports the victim was targeted with a submachine gun, months after getting out of prison and is believed to be involved in a long-running feud in the area.
No arrests have been made so far.
The scene was preserved for a technical exam and Gardaí are appealing to anyone who may have witnessed the shooting to come forward.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Tallaght Garda Station 01-6666000, the Garda Confidential Line 1800 666 111 or any Garda Station.
