O’Riordan sang in cell after alleged assault

Cranberries singer Dolores O’Riordan engaged in a chorus of singing and shouting from her jail cell at Shannon Garda station yesterday.

The singer spent three hours in the cell and her behaviour pattern during that time eventually resulted in the gardaí calling a doctor out of concerns for Ms O’Riordan’s psychological wellbeing.

The local GP assessed the Limerick woman shortly after 9am and recommended that she be further assessed at University Hospital Limerick.
