Meet the man who sparked an armed Garda response by just doing his job at a Dunnes Stores

A young Cork man going about his normal day's work sparked a major armed garda response outside a Dunnes Stores last week.

Gardai soon sped to the scene and while the apprentice could hear sirens - he had no idea they were coming for him. Even then Eric had no idea what was really happening until he returned to his work van where his colleague explained it all. "I just thought I might have set off a security alarm or something when I was going up to the roof - the guards were there less than five minutes to be honest because they saw it was only a power hose fairly quickly."

Man (21) charged with breaking into a house armed with an axeOccupants forced to take refuge in a bedroom during early morning break-in, court told Why would anyone bother gardai with this when they are busy at the checkpoints and checking if small retailers are not selling essential goods only? Interesting how you get every detail when he is Irish .. no details or name of illegal immigrant who was working in care home for 15 years and convicted of sexually abusing an elderly resident .. no wonder Irish people are annoyed .. blame on selective media reporting surely!! House break-in parties are now outlawed under recent Coviv19 rules.
