Jerry spoke to the Mayor of Carlow Cllr Fintan Phelan about the shocking and tragic events in Fairgreen Centre in Carlow on Sunday. 22-year-old Evan Fitzgerald shot himself dead after firing shots inside the centre. If anyone is affected, they may contact the Samaritans anytime at 116 123.
UPDATE AFTER BROADCAST:
District Court Judge Desmond Zaidan said it had been reported that Mr Fitzgerald had been on bail on firearms charges.
However, the judge said that gardaí consented to bail and therefore he had no power to go behind that.
To reflect this, we have changed the title of the podcast from its original 'Shopping Centre Gun Man Had Been Out on Bail'.
