"The Sniper" by Liam O'Flaherty - Newsreport

THREE DEAD FOUND ON THE STREETS OF DUBLIN
By JASMEEN GREWAL

Last night around three a.m., gunshots fired from rooftops in the Four Courts area of Dublin and three bodies were found dead.  An unknown woman, who was a resident of the area, was shot and additionally her driver was also shot.  The third death was a sniper with possession of various weapons, and who had clearly lost the fight.
The gunfire’s started at around two a.m., as the police were informed half an hour later, and approached the crime scene at quarter past three a.m. with multiple back up officers and cars.  Dublin Police has surrounded the area and shut down the area for investigation, as they searched the rooftops where the shooter hid.  Evidence found was blood on both opposite rooftops, proving habitation of the two snipers. A rifle was also found in the middle of the street.
A fellow bystander who was hiding behind bushes exclaims, “I was walking back from the bus stop alone, coming back from my night shift at the hospital but then all of a sudden heard four or five gunshots back and forth. I quickly ran and hid in the bushes as quiet as I could. My life was in so much danger, I barely could breathe properly.”
Another bystander post shooting expresses, “I caught a flight from Toronto to spend time with my family, and as I approached my area it was all covered in police tape. I was frightened and curious if my family was alright.”
Police have not been able to identify the suspects, as they were rushed to the nearest hospital. Investigations are intense and are still on going.
