• Limerick man refused bail over alleged threats to burn ex-partner's parents' home Threats to damage property; criminal damage; possession of a knife · Co. Limerick

  Billy Collopy, a 37-year-old man of no fixed abode, is accused of threatening to burn down the home where his ex-partner's parents live, with the alleged threats made to her via Snapchat. The events are alleged to have happened in the early hours of 3 September 2025, and he was arrested in the Farranshone area of Limerick city at 4.45am on a Wednesday. He faces four charges, two of them criminal damage relating to separate incidents outside a house at Shannonvale, Old Cratloe Road, and he is accused of having a knife when arrested. On 5 September, Judge Carol Anne Coolican at Limerick District Court refused him bail after garda objections, and he was remanded in custody until later this month for DPP's directions.
