FLANKED by prison officers dressed in full riot gear, 31-year-old Daniel D’arcy was brought to Limerick Circuit Court last week where he pleaded guilty to aggravated burglary and criminal damage in June 2008.

D’arcy received a three year prison sentence for attempting to flea the scene of the burglary when he held a knife to the throat of a female garda attending the scene.

Daniel D’arcy, of no fixed abode, was said to have been involved in a very serious incident and was returned to prison under tight security.
