Custody for girl after 'appalling' behaviour in care home
A 15-year-old girl was remanded in custody today after she caused mayhem at a HSE high support children's care unit and attacked staff when told she could not be alone in a room with a boy.
The girl, who has been in care since she was a baby, appeared at the Children's Court where she was facing sentencing for assaulting a 26-year-old Australian woman, on Dublin's Moore Street, on October 27 last. Three other assault charges, at stages where pleas have yet to be entered, were also before the court.
