Sometime between last Friday 10:30pm and 4am Saturday morning 23 racing pigeons at a pigeon fancier’s house in Clontarf, Co Dublin were killed.

The individual in question insists that there is no animosity between Clontarf pigeon fanciers. The individual in question has not even been racing often in recent years. The sport is not highly competitive.
