This morning.
Kylemore Park, Ballyfermot, Dublin.
A burned out car (above) near where Gardaí are investigating a shooting incident that occurred at approximately 7:30pm last night at Ballyfermot Crescent (top). A man sustained a number of apparent gunshot wounds and was taken to hospital with serious injuries.
Jammer, anyone?

“The Ballyfermot Chapelizod Partnership have taken over the billboards on the side of the GALA Bingo Hall – they’ve been falling apart for years. The plan is to create a permanent poster based on ideas from the locals – old stories, pictures, slogans and that. Students from BCFE [Ballyfermot College Of Further Education] will help us design the pieces.
Maser was good enough to grant us the use of his U ARE ALIVE piece to kick start the project and we are trying to get a decent profile on Facebook [link below] so that some of the local shops will find it easier to help us with the funding…”
Up close?
Maser’s life affirming handiwork in detail.
And not for the first time…

This is quite clearly bullshit and any kid who has dabbled in drugs will know. An organisation designed to help spread education in the Ballyfermot area spreading misinformation that will turn young people off the service that they are trying to reach out with.
