The jury in the trial of a 35-year-old man charged with murdering two Dublin men has been told that it may reach a majority verdict.
Jason O'Driscoll, with an address at Richmond Avenue, Fairview, has been on trial at the Central Criminal Court for the past month.
He has pleaded not guilty to murdering 31-year-old Anthony Burnett and 25-year-old Joseph Redmond in Co Louth on 7 March 2012.
The trial heard that firefighters were called to a burning car in Ravensdale Forest Park shortly before 11pm that night.
The bodies of the two men were discovered inside the stolen car that they had planned to sell to the accused.
They had both been shot in the head.
It is the State's case that Mr O'Driscoll was involved in the murder, travelling to and from the scene in a stolen silver Mercedes S Class.
The prosecutor told the jury that it could rely on circumstantial evidence to convict him.
The jurors began considering their verdict on Monday afternoon and deliberated for just over five hours this afternoon when they were called back to court by Mr Justice Michael White.
He asked them to continue to try to agree on an unanimous verdict.
However, he told them that if they could not agree on that, he could accept a majority verdict of at least ten.
