A concerned father has spoken out against his local cinema after they allegedly confiscated his son’s bottle of water, despite knowing that the boy was diabetic.

Bryan Keelan wrote on Facebook to express his anger and disappointment at the way he says his nine-year-old son, also named Bryan, wastreated in the Arc Cinema in Drogheda.

Bryan Jr, who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes just three months ago, was apparently refused permission to bring his own drink into the screening as it was not purchased on the premises.
