    Whats the story with that brain damaged guy who was in a car crash years ago? He seems to be on Oliver Plunkett St almost on a permanent basis making a complete nuisance of himself.

    He could be very frightening for some people who don't know that he's "harmless". I've also heard him shouting some vile racial abuse at people. I'm not sure what should be done for him but I do think he's a problem on the streets as he is. As or many other people who seem to hang out on the streets.

    Have seen him throwing stuff at random people, spitting, roaring abuse etc.

    He's supposed to have helpers with him but I've only seen them on a couple of occasions.

    I can never look at Tayto Salt and Vinegar crisps in a positive manner again. I was on the 203 about ten years back and sitting a few seats ahead of him, he was scoffing a packet away with bits of crisps and spit all over his hands, lips and chin and as he got to the end he called me and offered me the broken up ends of the bag. Yuk ! I'm wrenching as I'm writing this now.

    Danny? He's largely harmless but I saw him touch a woman one day on the shoulder and she lost it with him. I stepped in and just said he's not well. Don't think he's been looked after these days judging by his appearance.

    After the crash he had the compo money dripping off him, used to come into the shop i was working in spend €50 a day on scratch cards and he'd throw me a couple. That's 20 years ago

    Apparently she can be aggressive as well so people have said who have approached her.

    I haven't seen this person in the city centre, but it sounds like she needs support. I hope the services are aware.

    Was in town today and Paul street was awful. There was a Gard talking to someone sitting outside the pub while there was 3 drunks drinking flagons at the entrance to the the centre shouting and 3 lads at the door of the pub who couldn't stand up also shouting. This isn't good enough why weren't all these people moved on by police?

    Saturday morning at 11.30am we went for a walk from the Mercy Hospital area via the river walk in the direction of Fitzgerald Park.

    Shocked to see 2 separate groups of junkies (approx 400 metres apart) injecting heroin openly as we passed within 2 metres of them.

    This used to be a nice place to walk but now a dangerous option …..

    Thanks for the link. That's a depressing read.

    Literally no other ideas to tackle it, other than add one or two infant gardai to Cork per year?

    I've only now heard of this assault that took place in Merchant's Quay SC. Does anyone have any more information?
