Date Published: 29-Jan-2008
Extra Gardai are to be deployed to Oranmore from this weekend to crack down on anti-social behaviour.
Superintendent Tom Curley has undertaken to increase the number of Gardai on duty in Oranmore at weekends to cope with the increasing number of people socialising in the town.
The Superintendent is expected to use overtime for existing Gardai as well as requesting extra Garda numbers from the Minister for Justice to boost the police presence in the town from as soon as this weekend.
It follows this week’s meeting between Superintendent Curley and Galway West TD Noel Grealish and Councillor Jim Cuddy.
