Limerick criminal Wayne Dundon is released

GARDAI in Limerick are on high alert this weekend following the release of Wayne Dundon from Wheatfield Prison in Dublin.

Dundon, who recently turned 33, is a one of the key members of the notorious Dundon-McCarthy criminal gang, which are based in the Ballinacurra Weston area of the city.

He was released from Wheatfield Prison on Friday morning after completing a lengthy sentence for threatening to kill barman, Ryan Lee, at Brannigan's Bar, Mulgrave Street in 2004.

Dundon was initially sentenced to ten years in prison but that sentence was reduced to seven years by the Court of Criminal Appeal.

Ryan Lee's uncle, Steve Collins, was informed of Wayne Dundon's release by gardai in Limerick.

It is expected that Wayne Dundon will travel to the continent in the coming days.
