Kilkenny RPU benefitted from the assistance of the ASU for three high visibility checkpoints today in and around Kilkenny. The aim of the operation was to target and frustrate the movement of criminals and detect Road Traffic Offences.
Two arrests were made, the first was of a man who was subject to a Deportation Order and was transported immediately into custody. The second was a driver who was clearly under the influence of an intoxicant and failed a Roadside Oral Fluid Test.
Other less serious offences were detected and an Audi Q3 was seized having an NCT expired over a year and an unaccompanied learner at the wheel.
