Man who went into Cork bank with gas and lighter taped to body is 'getting on well', court hears

A man who was jailed two months ago as a risk to society for an attempted bank robbery where he carried a tin of butane gas and had a lighter taped to his left hand has been described  as recovering good mental health and playing chess in prison.

Defence solicitor, Diarmuid Kelleher, said Noel Cambridge of 22 Willow Park, Douglas Road, Cork, had been suffering delusions and paranoia when he was first before the court.
