A local Garda is facing disciplinary proceedings for operating a ‘Dirty Harry’ style checkpoint while enforcing lockdown measures.
Garda Colin Frolic, who was bored senseless from asking every fecking driver where they were going, is alleged to have spiced up his routine by deploying techniques learnt from watching Clint Eastwood’s notoriously maverick detective.
“He pulled a gun on me” said one terrified victim “And said he wasn’t sure if he’d fired five shots or six. Then he asked if I was feeling lucky. I was just trying to drop some shopping to me Mam.”
Garda Frolic is alleged to have reserved particular ire for over 70s, who he believed to be flouting cocooning guidelines.
“I told him I was 67, but he didn’t believe me,” said another victim. “He just stared me down and smashed in my window. When I tried to run away he clipped my bad leg and cuffed me.”
Frolic is also believed to have refused to work with a partner, telling bosses his work was too dangerous and that he should just be left alone.
The Garda Ombudsman has opened an investigation on Garda Frolic. Both the Chief and the Mayor are said to be livid at his disregard of direct orders.
