Irishman deported after riots

AN Irishman was among a host of foreigners expelled from Denmark this weekend for their part in the worst riots the country has seen in a decade.

The unidentified man was arrested after the first wave of rioting swept across the capital city of Copenhagen on Friday.

He was detained and was deported along with dozens of other foreigners. As a citizen of the European Union he is free to return to Denmark at any stage.
