Boy whose parents fear him remanded after garda head-butt
A 16-year-old boy, whose parents are too afraid to let him come home, has been further remanded in custody by the Dublin Children’s Court pending sentence for head-butting a garda.
The teenager had to be restrained after he began lashing out at gardaí in the courtroom where, minutes before, he refused offers of assistance, including a foster home, from the Health Service Executive (HSE) whose officials he branded "rats".
