Traffic wardens accused of ‘guerrilla warfare’

A former traffic warden fought back tears when she claimed her successor tried to intimidate motorists at her mother’s funeral.

The case was described by Judge Mary Devins as “almost like guerrilla warfare” between the two traffic wardens for six years.

Patricia McCafferty, aged 40, was in Ballyshannon District Court, giving her defence evidence in a resumed hearing in which she was accused of harassment of Eddie Duffy on eight different dates between April 17 and September 16, 2012, at Finner and Drumacrin in Bundoran, Co Donegal.
