Two 'Fat' Freddie deputies probed in gang war death plot - National News, Frontpage - Herald.ie: "Gardai believe two of 'Fat' Freddie Thompson's deputies were behind the Ingram murder plot.
The pair, both of whom live in Dublin's south inner city, had their homes raided by armed officers minutes after gardai discovered a stash of four Ingram machine pistols and silencers in a Mulhuddart lock-up.
Officers believe that the men, who are on the gardai's most-wanted gangland list, were behind the plan to import the guns in order to mount a violent attack on rivals.
One of the men, a 26-year-old, is suspected of being the gunman who botched a hit on Martin Foley in 2008. The second is regarded as Thompson's eyes and ears in Dublin, and is considered 'Fat' Freddie's closest confidante.
According to sources, gardai swooped on the unit at Damastown Industrial Estate amid fears that an attack was just hours or days away.
A security source said: 'These guns would have been used in a bloodbath. A hit squad armed with them would have a military-like level of firepower.'"
