Cork man accused of Kerry burglary spree

A district court judge yesterday declined jurisdiction to deal with a Cork man accused of a series of burglaries in Kerry.

A 54-year-old appeared in custody before Judge James O’Connor at Tralee District Court charged with a series of thefts or burglaries stretching from Castlegregory to rural Killarney.

Judge O’Connor said it was simply “not on to have somebody coming down from Cork to rob private houses in Kerry”.
