Young thugs stoning cars ‘are putting lives at risk’

YOUNG thugs who are pelting cars with missiles on one of Cork’s busiest roads are putting lives at risk.

A city councillor, whose car was hit by a ‘muck ball’ — a stone covered in mud — as she drove along the city’s North Ring road, said someone will be killed unless the problem is tackled.

Sinn Féin’s Annette Spillane called yesterday for extra garda foot patrols in the area after a spate of new attacks.
