    The same article refers to "Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen".

    ...and it calls the gardaí "police". Clearly written by a foreign Reuters or AP correspondent and just regurgitated without being proof-read by the Indo. Bad form.

    Blogged for posterity :)

    Anyone know if this turned up in the print edition?

    Did anyone notice that they are all inform topic links? Looks like a glitch from that side.

    They edited the article to fix the errors this morning, but have since removed it altogether. Hmmm...

    I could not find it on Lexis Nexis last night, or nor just now, and it also read "told RTE today"... so, it looks like a poor attempt at an online-only article.
