LIMERICK — April 12, 2025 A man in his 40s has been arrested and charged following a Garda pursuit that resulted in the seizure of a vehicle in Limerick city on Thursday evening.
According to Gardaí, the incident occurred shortly after 8 p.m. on April 10 in the Ballinacurra Weston area. Officers on routine patrol attempted to intercept a car that had raised suspicions.
