Leitrim community 'will be as disgusted' by fire attack on TD's car

Gardaí are appealing for witnesses who were in the area between midnight and 3am yesterday to contact them.

Sinn Féin MEP Matt Carthy says he hopes those behind a fire attack on the car of a Co Leitrim TD are brought to justice.

It happened outside the home of his party colleague, TD Martin Kenny at Aughavas, near Ballinamore at around half 2.30 yesterday morning.
