IT’S sad but true. You know it and I know it. The way things are going, one of these days — perhaps not so far into the distant future — some coked-up young scumbag in Dublin, Limerick or Cork is going to murder an unarmed garda.

Gardaí investigating the shooting of a motorcycle garda in central Dublin tonight arrested a man and a woman.

THE Garda Commissioner yesterday led condemnations on the latest attack on gardaí, which left two officers hospitalised, one with a suspected broken jaw.

THE safety of gardaí on the beat is being compromised because of a lack of resources in some parts of the country, the head of the Garda Representative Association claimed yesterday.

Gardaí have carried out a series of raids as part of their hunt for the armed gang that shot Garda Paul Sherlock.
