It is being reported that Gardaí believe Mr Kelly was stabbed during a row over a parking space, as it appears the pair were not known to each other, and that Mr Kelly had stayed overnight with his partner who lived in the estate.
Neither Anderson or Mr Kelly were known to Gardaí before the incident.
Gardaí are still appealing for witnesses of the incident, particularly anyone who may have dashcam footage of the attack.
