‘Blanket policing’ call as hunt for killer continues

BLANKET policing of Southill was demanded yesterday as the murder hunt continued in Limerick for the killer of part-time security worker Noel Crawford.

Mr Crawford’s funeral will take place tomorrow.

The call for round-the-clock garda patrols was made by Labour councillor James Houlihan, as he addressed the city’s three most senior officers at a meeting of Limerick’s Joint Policing Committee.
