Wed 08 Aug 2009Boy who attacked garda refuses foster care
A 16-YEAR-OLD boy whose parents say they are too scared to let him come home has been further remanded in custody after he refused to accept a foster home placement offered by the Health Service Executive (HSE).
The teenager has entered guilty pleas at the Children’s Court to attacking a garda called to the defendant’s west Dublin home last February. He also admits a breach of the peace at a hospital on June 18th, and being drunk and disorderly, and breach of the peace at a community centre on February 15th.
