Dublin man awaits sentence for stolen-car 'mayhem'

A Swords man who faced 12 charges arising out of "an unbelievable night of mayhem" has been remanded on bail pending sentence at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.

James Doyle (aged 20), of Drynam Road drove a stolen car dangerously around a north city suburban area, crashing into an unoccupied parked car and causing other drivers to take evasive action, and then damaged a garda station cell before trying to escape custody while being treated at the Mater Hospital.
