Staff at a takeaway in Ballincollig were racially abused by two men who agreed to leave the scene for gardaí but returned to carry out the same behaviour 10 minutes later. It happened at Lennox’s in Ballincollig, County Cork. Joe Healy of 12 Oaklands, Ballincollig, Cork, appeared at Cork District Court by video link from prison and pleaded guilty to charges of being drunk and threatening and refusing to leave the scene of the disturbance. When directed to leave Lennox’s the two men did go but 10 minutes later there was a report to gardaí that they were back causing a nuisance in the same manner again. Healy was refused bail at Cork District Court last week on the public order charge.
