Woman attempted to headbutt garda
The case against Noreen McDonnell, of 32 Sandfield Terrace, Mallow, Co Cork, was listed for hearing at Cork District Court yesterday.
The 49-year-old initially failed to appear to face the charges against her but her solicitor, David O’Meara, was present. Judge Olann Kelleher said he would hear the evidence in her absence. After doing so he convicted Ms McDonnell on all four charges — one of engaging in threatening behaviour, one of being drunk and a danger, and two counts of obstructing gardaí.
