Disciplinary proceedings have been put on hold against a Dublin-based garda who was accused of assaulting a member of the public.

A man accused of being part of a criminal gang that put a skimming device and concealed camera on an ATM has been refused bail.

A garda was bitten on the hand in the back of a patrol car by a man who had been arrested in Carrigaline for public order offences.

A pregnant teenage girl with 26 previous convictions, who scraped a garda’s face and struggled so much that she had to be restrained and handcuffed, has been released on probation for six months.
