An Irish man has died and a child has been injured in a shooting incident at a shopping centre in County Carlow on Sunday.
Emergency services are currently at the scene at the Fairgreen Shopping Centre, with an army bomb disposal team also in attendance.
Gardaí (Irish police) were alerted to the incident shortly after 18:15 local time.
The girl was treated by paramedics at the scene. Gardaí said it is not yet known how her injuries were sustained.
The shopping centre has been evacuated and the area has been sealed off by police.
The cordon will remain in place overnight.
Gardaí have said there are no further safety concerns and urged people not to share any footage of the incident on social media.
Ireland's justice minister said the incident "is something we never want or expect to happen in our communities".
"Gun violence is very rare in Ireland, and I am determined that will remain the case," said Jim O'Callaghan

Yeah that request right there is indicative that the suspect is probably not of the Caucasian persuasion
“Gardaí said it is not yet known how her injuries were sustained. “
Hmmm, maybe the next quote gives the answer.
“...and urged people not to share any footage of the incident on social media.”
When we learn the shooter was not Irish and the locals protest we’ll hear all manner on condemnation about “far right” Irishmen.
Now I know who did it.
NO…man did not “die”…he was fupjing MURDERED…the M word…it is never used anymore. A “shooting” by a “shooter”…
We are toast. Call it what it is., a murder committed by a mass-murderer…or wanna be mass-murderer (if he only killed one victim).
