Rush-hour traffic 'delayed would-be bank robbers' getaway car'

A member of a gang who arrived to rob a bank moments after it closed because their stolen getaway car had been delayed in rush-hour traffic has had his sentence adjourned at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.

Dermot O'Callaghan (aged 39) and his gang attempted to force the door open but fled after gardaí were alerted and he pointed a firearm out the back car window at gardaí during a high speed chase around heavy traffic.
