A Holycross man has been ordered to pay €200 to charity for being drunk in a public place at Thurles District Court.

Garda James Maher of Thurles Garda Station told the court that on the day of the incident, he approached the defendant, and when speaking to him, determined that he was intoxicated to the point that he posed a danger to himself. He was arrested and taken to Thurles Garda Station for his own safety.
