Emergency services worker slams those who videoed recovery of Limerick bodies

Tributes have been paid to the victims of a freak incident on the River Shannon yesterday in which two men lost their lives.

The men, who were stone masons from Co Clare and Co Kerry, had been standing in a cage platform while carrying out specialised remedial works on Thomond Bridge in Limerick City, when the platform plunged into the river around 3.45pm.
