Part-time dance teacher wins compensation for damage caused during garda raid

An innocent mother-of-three has been awarded almost €5,000 after Gardaí smashed in her doorway during a raid which proved fruitless.
Gardaí have accepted that children's dance teacher Erica O'Reilly of Croftwood Green, Ballyfermot, Dublin is of good character and nothing illegal was found in her home during the raid on July 27 last year.
