Body of man believed to be connected to Cork farmhouse shooting found

The body of a man has been found in a river in Mitchelstown in Co. Cork.

It's believed that he's the brother of the two men that were found dead at a farmhouse last night.

Gardai were called to the scene at around midnight and discovered the bodies of the brothers who were in their 60s.

Gardai then commenced a search for a third brother, believed to be driving a red Toyota Corolla van.
