Missile 'hurled' at bus stopped at busy Limerick junction
GARDAI are appealing for information after a missile was thrown at a busy which was stopped at traffic lights in the city.
The incident occurred at around 8.30pm last Thursday when the Bus Éireann bus was stopped at St Nessans Road in Raheen at its junction with Avonmore Road.
"The bus was travelling in the direction of Limerick city. A thief came along and hurled a missile at the door of the bus which resulted in the glass on the door being shattered. Luckily , there were no passengers on the bus at the time," said Garda John Finnerty.

Limerick. The gardai at Roxboro Road are anxious to speak to any witnesses to this incident," added Garda Finnerty.
