Hoax call 'lured gardaí to petrol-bomb scene', court told
A petrol bomb exploded when it was thrown at a garda patrol car after the guards were lured to a housing estate with a hoax call on Halloween night, it was claimed today, as two men were charged and refused bail.
A 999 call was made to the garda control room on October 31 and gardaí were lured to Innishmore Grove in Ballincollig, Co Cork, at 10.30pm that night, Superintendent Con Cadogan testified yesterday at Cork District Court.
