Thomas Cahill Donohue (35) describes incident at Lusk housing estate as ‘ridiculous’

Donohue was on a driving ban but agreed to do it after this man offered to pay him €150. On the way to Lusk, he became suspicious ecause the car was only three years old. He then clipped a wheel of the car on a roundabout, rupturing the tyre. He managed to pull into the Whitethorn Walk estate where he crashed into two other cars.

One woman said that Donohue told her “give me your keys or I’ll shoot you” and she panicked. A neighbour said he saw her struggling with Donohue and screaming for him to get away. Donohue pushed past some residents who had opened their front door at the commotion and took car keys but other neighbours repeatedly stopped him from driving off by taking the keys back out of the ignition.
