Gardai play down incident at Athlone Town football match
By Maria Daly
Athlone Gardai are denying claims that a football fan was injured by fireworks during an Athlone Town FC football match which took place at the weekend. According to the Gardai at Pearse St, Athlone, there has been no report of anyone being injured at the event. This is despite a large Garda presence at Dubarry Park, where the match against Galway United took place. Gardai are, however, investigating an incident where two windows on a bus, which was parked outside the grounds, were broken.
