Only in Ireland

I got this little gem of a press release direct from Ireland. While it's not quite as good as this one it's still a bit of a hoot.

(I've cut all the political waffle out of it and left the important stuff)


Ten years of Govt neglect of GardaĆ­ coming home to roost.

Fine Gael Laois/Offaly candidate Charles Flanagan has said he was dismayed to hear of an incident in which a suspect was brought to a Garda Station in a hired farm trailer because he was too tall for a normal Garda car, and there is no Public Order Vehicle (Paddy Wagon) in the whole of Co. Laois.

“The suspect, a heavy-set man, was too tall for a conventional Garda car. And because there is no Public Order Vehicle in the whole of Co. Laois, the suspect was finally tied in to a farm trailer and removed from the scene."

Ends
