Teen girl admits attacking six gardaí

A 17-year-old girl who attacked six gardai with kicks, spits and a head butt has been remanded on bail pending sentencing at the Dublin Children's Court.

The girl pleaded guilty to attacking six officers in Coolock, in Dublin on May 29 last year. One Garda Sergeant, whom the court was told was six foot two inches in height and about twice the teen's weight, was attacked twice.
