On 22 March 2021, William Lawrence, a 36-year-old man from Co Cavan, drove a grey Peugeot at approximately 80km/h in a 13-minute pursuit through Longford town after Gardaí John Hanley and Ronan Duffy attempted to stop him. Garda Hanley's hand was caught in the driver's side window as the car moved forward, and the vehicle crashed into a wall near a creche in Ardnacassa.
