Croke Park streaker charged with indecency

A 24-YEAR-OLD Co Wexford man appeared in Dublin District Court yesterday in connection with a streaking incident during the Leinster Hurling Final in Croke Park.

The court heard that when charged in Mountjoy Garda Station, Kevin Caulfield, from New Ross, told Sergeant Declan Yeats: “I have no problem with that.”

Blond-haired Caulfield, aged 24, appeared before Judge James Scally wearing blue denim pants and a dark grey shirt. He was arrested in Jones Road outside the stadium at 5.25pm on July 6 following the game, in which Kilkenny defeated Wexford by 2-23 to 2-12.

Caulfield, who was stated to be unemployed and on social welfare, was granted legal aid. He was remanded on continuing bail until September 18 on two charges of indecency causing a breach of the peace.

The court was told that further charges were being considered against him.
