Addict robbed mum pushing buggy

A drug addict who was on bail for an attempted robbery when he robbed a mother out walking her baby in a buggy has been jailed for three years.

Jamie O’Hara, aged 20, went up to Lisa Warren while she was crossing her local park in Tallaght around lunchtime with her four-year-old daughter and a four-month-old baby in a push chair.

O’Hara started grabbing at her bag, which was strapped around the buggy. The victim feared her baby would fall out and so kept hold of the bag.
