Man with disabilities an ‘easy target’ in Limerick, court told

Belinda O’Sullivan, aged 24, of McGarry House, Alphonsus St, Limerick, pleaded guilty at Limerick Circuit Court to robbing the man on May 25, 2014, as he sat in his wheelchair.
Det Garda Niall Fitzgerald said the victim was at Lord Edward St when two women, one the accused, approached him. One asked if he wanted his shoe lace tied. O’Sullivan, who has 101 previous convictions, then slapped him on the face and took his wallet, which contained €80.
