The attack took place at Browne’s Steakhouse in Main Street in Blanchardstown at around 8pm local time.
A man in his 20s died, with another man seriously wounded, in a shooting at a Dublin restaurant. The victims were taken to James Connolly Memorial Hospital.
The 20-year-old man died in hospital and the second one, aged 40, is being treated for gunshot wounds and remains in a serious condition, according to Irish police.
Taoiseach (Irish prime minister) Leo Varadkar claimed he was “shocked to hear about the shooting.”
Irish Justice Minister Helen McEntee condemned the shooting, stating that “this viciousness has resulted in unimaginable human suffering this Christmas.”
That anyone could perpetrate such violence as families gathered together is especially disgusting.
