Gardaí to lead UCC Rag Week crackdown

GARDAÍ will lead a major and co-ordinated crackdown on University College Cork’s (UCC) annual Rag Week event next week.

Superintendent Barry McPolin, who is in charge of policing in the city centre, warned students there will be a zero tolerance approach to anti-social behaviour and that arrests will be made where necessary.

Wild house parties will not be tolerated and on-the-spot fines for drinking on the street will be issued, he said.
