Insp Denis Harrington gave summary evidence saying at 7.55pm on June 3, 2018 the defendant was caught urinating on tents at the Cowboys and Heroes Festival in Drumcoura, Ballinamore.

He was described as being “extremely aggressive” in the Garda vehicle while being conveyed to Carrick-on-Shannon and he also attempted to escape when he arrived in Carrick-on-Shannon.
