Man who attacked taxi driver gets six years
A Ballyfermot man who assaulted a taxi driver, leaving him with a fractured skull, while on bail for ramming a Garda car with stolen car he had driven at 160 kilometres per hour, has been given a six-year sentence.
Anthony Dennis (aged 23), who has 107 previous convictions, laughed as he swerved to hit the patrol car and, one month later, while on bail for this offence he and a co-accused told his assault victim: "We are untouchable."
