Corkman extradited for dangerous driving trial

A Corkman was extradited from the UK this week and charged with dangerous driving causing the death, almost four years ago, of a young French man working for Apple.

Detective Garda Anne O’Flynn arrested Martin Linehan and charged him with a total of 10 offences arising out a fatal traffic collision in which Gabriel Lege, aged 25, was killed while crossing the street at George’s Quay, Cork, on October 31, 2013.

Det Garda O’Flynn told Cork District Court she arrested Mr Linehan at Cork Airport at 7.30pm on Tuesday and conveyed him to the Bridewell Garda Station where she later charged him.
