2. #SHOOTING ARRESTS: Two men are being questioned over the shooting dead of 27-year-old Michael Kelly close to the Luas Red Line in Dublin in July – two trams were passing at the time of his murder.
3. #MISSING: Gardai are concerned for the wellbeing of 57-year-old Carmel Williams and her 18-year-old son Alexander, who have been missing from their home in Mullingar since last month.
4. #JUNIOR DOCTORS: The Irish Medical Organisation has agreed to meet with the Labour Relations Commission to hear what the HSE has to say following yesterday’s 24-hour strike by junior doctors.
