Yeah, very near where it was found.

Yeah, yeah.

Were you shot?

Absolutely.

Shocked is not the word, but not surprised considering what's going on in Ballymun.

Ballymun is the new Beirut and has been for several years.

I know that's been a bit dramatic, but in fairness, that is exactly what's going on.

It's been forgotten about.

It hasn't been developed.

I don't know if you've been in Ballymun recently, but it's not looking the best

very little shots, no amenities and then what happened yesterday is a prime example of how it's been forgotten and there's nothing being done about it because that was quite serious and look, it won't be the first, it's not the first time something like this has happened and it won't be the last because nothing's been done.

Yeah, so behind those nice, shiny buildings...

isn't the best you go into the housing estates you walk around the housing estates in there and it's very much like for example they'll smoke weed like as if they're smoking a cigarette they'll sit out the front like there's no proper civilisation going on in there at all not in every part of it but in a lot of parts like you would definitely have your back up and you'd have your eyes open at all times walking through the estates because

it's not really a nice place to be.

It's full of drugs.

It's full of anti-social behaviour.

It always has been for as long as I've lived here.

And it's just very run down and that there is great people in Ballymun, but then, to be honest with you, it's just a kit.

Really, that's what I can say.

It's just been forgotten about.
