 A 35-year-old Bishopstown man allegedly made racial slurs to foreign nationals in and around the local leisure complex and later struck a garda patrol car twice with a clawhammer.

These allegations against Leon O’Connor of Uam Var Avenue, Bishopstown, Cork, were made by Garda Shane Masters who objected to bail being granted to the accused because of the seriousness of the case at Cork District Court.
