Boy, 15, stole 25 cars in 6 months, court hears
The 15-year-old stole cars in Limerick city, Newcastle West, Shannon, Tralee and Tipperary town; caused numerous crashes, one of which badly injured a heavily pregnant woman; and in high speed chase at night “lost” a garda patrol car when he turned off his lights as he veered and swerved through country roads.
And Limerick Children’s Court was told that at times during these escapades, the boy was out on High Court bail.
