Man's fingerprints sent around EU as gardaí bid to establish his identity

Fingerprints of a non-national caught working in Cork without any identification papers have been sent to Austria and other EU countries in an attempt by gardaí to establish his identity, writes Liam Heylin.

Detective Sergeant Seán O’Regan said, “This man was arrested on Friday for failing to have identification documents. He has given an address at Gerald Griffin Street. I called to the address and the occupant there does not know him. He does not reside there, he never did. He said he came in through Austria to Dublin airport.
