Boy racers block off main road to perform stunts

BOY racers blocked off a section of the main Cork to Killarney road around Glenflesk for about half an hour on Saturday night, as other young drivers performed various stunts in modified cars.

However, five Garda Traffic Corps units opened the road and maintained a presence in the area.

The International Rally of the Lakes attracted large crowds of motor sport fans to the Killarney area and there were 25 arrests, including five for drink driving, up to yesterday.
