A post-mortem examination will take place this morning on the body of a man who died following a shooting incident at a shopping centre in Carlow town on Sunday evening.
The body of the deceased man, 22-year-old Evan Fitzgerald from near Kiltegan in Co Wicklow, was taken from the scene yesterday afternoon to Dublin, where a full postmortem will be carried out today by the state pathologist Dr Heidi Okkers.
The deceased was out on bail on firearms charges, and the garda investigation will look at how he came to obtain the shotgun which was fired into the air at the Fairgreen shopping centre, before he died from a self-inflicted wound.
