Father tells inquest son who fell from bridge was 'bullied because he was gay'

Brian McGiff from Ballyogan, Carrickmines, Dublin 18 reached out his hand and asked for help as he dangled from a bridge over the M50, an inquest heard.
Dublin Coroner’s Court heard the young man, who had plans to train as a hairdresser, was out with friends in the hours before the incident. He consumed alcohol during a shopping trip to Dublin city centre and was described as ‘somewhat drunk,’ the court heard.
