A WANTED Drogheda feud gang member has been seen on camera refereeing a bare-knuckle fight on a UK golf green.

Mark Kavanagh, 34, was described in a High Court affidavit as a “prominent member of the Price-Maguire Organised Crime gang”.

The feud between associates of mob boss Owen Maguire and members of the Anti-Maguire faction in the Co Louth town claimed four lives including that of 17-year-old Keane Mulready-Woods.

Now, a video has emerged of Kavanagh acting as a referee in a punch-up on a golf course in the UK.

The five-minute video of the scrap takes place while other golfers drive by in a golf buggy. Kavanagh is heard shouting to them: “We’re giving it five minutes.”
