Man stripped after gardaí arrived at house

Gardaí who responded to a call to a domestic disturbance were pushed out of the house by a man who then proceeded to strip naked in his front garden.

Garda Conor O’Leary and Garda Agnieszka Pizlo responded to the call to Kerry Rd, Cork, where Tadhg Hopkins, of 88 Elm Park, Wilton, was causing a disturbance.

Insp Pat Meaney said the incident occurred at 10pm on Dec 4, 2012, when the defendant’s mother reported that her son was roaring and shouting and causing difficulties at the family home.
