Gardaí have been investigating whether the death was connected to a local feud.

The woman who was arrested last night is being held at Tallaght Garda Station under the provisions of Section 30 – Offences Against the State Act 1939

Meanwhile, a 22-year-old man - who was arrested on Monday in connection with the shooting - has been released without charge.

Gardaí say a file is being prepared for the DPP.
