Only five new gardaí in city an ‘outrage’

THE deployment to Limerick of just five of the 254 new gardaí who graduated from Templemore last Friday was yesterday condemned as an outrage.

Towns such as Cavan (six new gardaí), Balieboro (seven), Buncrana (six) and Letterkenny (nine) did better than the entire Limerick Garda Division.

Not a single new garda was deployed to Co Limerick.
