A Galway man on a drinking session in Cork ended up "snooping around" the private car park area of Mayfield Garda Station but he said he did not know where he was and only wanted a taxi.

Justin Mulhall, of Boireann Bheag, Roscam, Co Galway, pleaded guilty to being drunk and a danger but denied the charge of trespassing with intent to commit an offence.
