Man gets four years for setting bus alight

A man who has no recollection of setting fire to the top deck of a bus - causing an estimated €109,467 worth of damage - has given a four year sentence at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.

David Mills (aged 22), of Oakley Road, Ranelagh didn’t realise the bus had been destroyed until friends told him three months later that they had seen him on the RTÉ Crimecall programme.
