Liam Rice
Liam Rice was a volunteer in the Irish Republican Army (IRA) who was "shot while resisting arrest", by the Garda Síochána (police) in Dublin in the early 1940s.[when?]
Rice's injuries, as well as the wounding in similar circumstances of Charlie McGlade, were blamed by the IRA on Special Branch Sergeant Denis O'Brien, himself a former IRA member turned police detective. The IRA reputedly used these shootings as justification for the 1942 killing of O'Brien by IRA Chief-of-Staff Charlie Kerins.[1]
