RTE And The Long Arm Of The Law


Looks like the RTE newsroom had a few scoops before filing this breathless story.

" The device was found on the person of a man in his mid 20s who was arrested in Athlone this afternoon by gardaĆ­ in Galway following the recovery of a fireman."

OK BUT WHAT HAPPENED THE FIREMAN???? And how long are the arms on those Guards in Galway who can arrest someone that's in Athlone? Now that's policework.

You mean Athlone isn't in Galway?

Where did I drop that hitchhiker off?

Sounds familiar, that's near Trim isn't it?

Just a short back and sides away.
