Gardai have launched a murder investigation following the shooting dead of Eric Fowler in West Dublin.
The 34-year-old was gunned down outside his home in Blanchardstown last night.
A car, believed to have been used in the incident, was later found burnt out in Clonee.
Investigating officers believe two people were involved in the killing, and are looking into possible links to an ongoing gangland feud.
The scene remains sealed off for a technical examination and the body has been brought to the city mortuary.
A second scene in nearby Clonee is also being preserved where a a Volkswagon Jetta was found burnt out - Gardaí believe it may be connected to the earlier shooting.
They are asking anyone with information on the attack to contact Blanchardstown Garda Station.
