Irish pub owner comes to rescue of scammed inter-railers

The owner of an Irish pub in Poland has been hailed a hero by two young inter-railers who were left penniless and stranded when their bank cards were skimmed in Krakow.

Fergus Duffy, who opened Duffy’s Pub a year ago, rushed to the Irish lads’ aid and ensured they had enough money to continue their journey.

Fergus, who hails from Kells, Co Meath, was described as a “gentleman” on social media by one of the men who said they ‘couldn’t thank him enough’.
