Patrick McDonagh, 25, a man, pleaded guilty to dangerous driving causing serious bodily harm at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court on 3 November 2021 after his car struck Michael Whitfield, 66, a man, in the Circle K car park on the Clonshaugh Road in 2021. Whitfield fell backwards, hit his head on the ground, and suffered life-changing injuries, spending five weeks in an induced coma. McDonagh was originally charged with assault causing serious harm, but the DPP accepted a plea to dangerous driving causing serious bodily harm. He was sentenced to a headline term of six years, reduced to five, with the final six months suspended on probation conditions, to run consecutive to a seven-year sentence he is already serving, resulting in four and a half years in jail.
