Garda fight against feuding gangs will be ‘long and hard’

THE law and order fight against Limerick’s feuding families will be a long drawn out one, the city’s most senior garda said yesterday.

Chief supt Willie Keane spelled out the huge resources now being deployed to target the feuding gangs when he addressed the city’s joint policing committee.

The meeting was attended by four of the city’s five TDs, with defence minister Willie O’Dea absent.
