• Man jailed for dragging garda along N1 near Louth/Armagh border Endangerment · Co. Louth

  Brian Morgan, a 60-year-old man from Newry, was detected driving a Volvo at 182 kph at a speed check on the M1 in December 2020 and, when told he would be arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving, drove off dragging a Roads Policing Unit garda along the N1 near the Louth/Armagh border. The garda sustained a head injury, concussion and a fractured collarbone and was off work for over six months. Morgan, who had 21 previous convictions in Northern Ireland, was extradited in November 2023, pleaded guilty to endangerment, and was sentenced at Dundalk Circuit Court in March 2024 to four and a half years in prison with the final 15 months suspended, plus an eight-year driving ban.
