Drunken brothers brawled outside Cork City pub

Two brothers got into a fight with each other outside The Cow Bar in Mayfield and one got so aggressive with the garda who arrived on the scene he had to be pepper-sprayed.

Both brothers pleaded guilty to the parts they played in the row yesterday at Cork District Court.

William O’Shea, aged 26, and James O’Shea, aged 23, both of 15 Boyne Crescent, Mayfield, Cork, pleaded guilty to being drunk and a danger and engaging in threatening behaviour. William O’Shea also pleaded guilty to obstructing Detective Garda Mark Durcan.
