• Buncrana man banned for two years after fleeing garda checkpoint Dangerous driving; public order offence · Co. Donegal

  A 31-year-old Buncrana man, Darren McDaid, was charged over a St Patrick's Day 2021 incident in which he was reported to have been verbally and physically abusive and to have hit out towards gardaí. On January 28, 2022, at St Mary's Road in Cockhill, he was reported to have driven off at speed from a garda checkpoint, forcing a garda to jump out of the way, and was charged in connection with that incident. At Buncrana District Court he was convicted of dangerous driving, fined €250 and banned from driving for two years, and fined €300 for the public order offence, with his solicitor saying he pleaded guilty while he was absent after emigrating to Australia. The latest reported development, from September 2024, is the two-year driving ban.
