Man also charged with driving a car without the permission of the owner

The case against 34-year-old Barry Walsh was heard at Cork District Court.

A man was literally caught red-handed at a burglary as a back window of a house was smashed and he was found intoxicated at the scene and bleeding from his left thumb.

These were the allegations made by Detective Sergeant Kieran O’Sullivan in the case against 34-year-old Barry Walsh, of 19 Glencree Crescent, Mayfield, Cork, at Cork District Court.
