A 19-year-old Killarney man with a history of breaking into houses and taking keys to go joyriding in cars for days on end has been jailed for two years at the Circuit Criminal Court in Tralee.

PLANS for a long-awaited, €1.5 million development by Killarney Rugby Club have been turned down by Kerry County Council, but an appeal may be lodged with An Bord Pleanála.

AS LAND prices in Killarney continue to rocket, Town Council manager Tom Curran has indicated that land bought at development prices will not be sold cheaply to local sports clubs, or given away free gratis.

CHANGES in the way the ambulance service deals with emergency situations in Kerry should ensure that two serious incidents that occurred in the county recently will not be repeated.
