Convicted drug dealer John Gilligan has been warned his life is in danger after an attempt was made on his life.
An armed man, wearing a motorcycle helmet, went into the Halfway House pub on the Navan Road in Dublin yesterday afternoon and walked around looking for someone.
When challenged by the barman, the gunman shouted: "Where's Gilligan?", before leaving on a motorbike.
A short time later gardaí caught up with the motorbike on the River Road in Finglas but the driver got away following a short pursuit.
However officers recovered a 9mm handgun, which was thrown from the bike, and which is now being forensically examined.
Detectives believe Gilligan is lucky to be alive as the gunman appears to have gone to the wrong location as the 61-year-old was in a nearby pub.
However gardaí have advised him on his own personal security after the incident and have begun a criminal investigation.
Meanwhile, John Gilligan was due in the High Court this morning as part of an attempt to prevent the sale by the Criminal Assets Bureau of Jessbrook, the equestrian centre in Co Kildare, which was seized from him.
