Gardaí at Santry Garda Station are investigating the unlawful killing of Martin Lynn.  

On the night of the 29th July 2023 into the morning of the 30th July 2023, Martin had been with friends in Dublin City Centre socialising. He arrived home by taxi to Larkhill Road shortly before 4.30am on the 30th July 2023, accompanied by a friend.  As they alighted from the taxi a motorcyclist passed the taxi and pulled in approximately 10 metres ahead of it. The male rider dismounted and approached Martin and his friend as they crossed the road.

The male suspect briefly spoke to Martin before he (martin) subsequently received an injury to his head. The motorcyclist drove away from the scene and left Larkhill Road in the direction in which he had arrived.

Martin subsequently died from his injuries at Beaumont Hospital on 1st August 2023.
