Up and put it online’ IRISH GANGSTERS COPYING MEXICAN CARTEL HORROR
after he disappeared in Drogheda, Co Louth, two weeks ago.
It is feared that his death could prompt further horrific reprisals.
A source said: “The Mexicans take it to another level and the Irish have copied.
“Shooting someone isn’t enough now – you’ve got to cut them up and put it on social media.
“But where does it end? Keane will just be the first of many.” The news emerged as it was claimed that a thug from the UK has joined the bitter gang war.
It is alleged they are protecting Irish mob boss Cornelius Price – who has an £85,000 bounty on his head.
The hardened criminal was released from prison last year after serving a three-year sentence for reckless endangerment of a police officer.
A source said: “Price and his gang are at the centre of this feud and they know they’re under serious pressure from the people who killed Keane Mulready-Woods.
“It’s not the first time he has drafted in supporters from the UK because, when he’s under pressure, he surrounds himself with people he can trust. It’s also concerning that people from outside the area could be dragged into this feud.”
Irish cops have established a strong presence in Drogheda in a bid to prevent any more outbreaks of violence.
Keane was and taken to abducted a house where he was tortured, killed and dismembered.
Last Monday night, parts of his body were found inside a black sports bag thrown from a car as it travelled through an estate in north Dublin.
His severed head was found in a blazing Volvo hatchback in Drumcondra, Dublin, last Thursday morning.
A 24-year-old man has since been arrested in connection with the teenager’s murder.
