ROSS CHASED COUSIN'S KILLERS

GARETH Hutch's cousin Ross chased after the gunmen who shot his relative dead after coming on the scene and told arriving gardai "it's the f**king feud", the Special Criminal Court heard.

The court heard yesterday from witnesses who saw Ross Hutch "clutching his head" and "roaring" after finding his slain cousin's body lying between two cars in the carpark at Avondale House in the north inner city. He was heard screaming "oh, no, no, no".

The three-judge court also viewed footage of the moment Mr Hutch was shot a number of times after he was accosted by two gunmen in the car park close to his home at Avondale House.

Two men can be seen running to a nearby car after shots are fired and Gareth Hutch is seen falling to the ground.

Ross Hutch arrives on the scene moments later and footage shows him chasing after the men as they flee.

Gardai who attended the scene told the non-jury court that a large crowd of up to 50 people gathered at the scene following the shooting and the situation was "volatile" with many of those present shouting abuse at gardai.

FEUD

The court heard when members of the force arrived on the scene Ross Hutch told them "do your job" and when a garda asked what had happened he replied: "It's the f**king feud".
