Waterford’s Busy Bank Holiday Weekend | Ireland News

Waterford’s August Bank Holiday weekend buzzed with big events like Spraoi and All Together Now — mostly trouble-free, but law enforcement kept busy. Arrests surged for public order, drunk and disorderly conduct, and drug possession. Two burglaries hit: one at Tesco Extra in Ardkeen after a window was smashed, another in Bunmahon where a handbag and deckchair vanished. A car’s rear window was shattered on Youghal Road. Most alarmingly, 13 impaired drivers were caught between July 24 and Aug 3 — four over the legal alcohol limit, nine high on drugs including cocaine and cannabis. Gardaí are warning: no safe level of drugs or alcohol behind the wheel — they linger for days. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
