Gardaí from the Armed Support Unit were deployed in addition to a number of other garda units.
The van proceeded at speed the wrong way down a ramp on to the N40 before ramming more garda vehicles. The van allegedly went the wrong way around the Shannonpark Roundabout in Carrigaline before being brought to a halt by a stinger device on Carr’s Hill in Cork.
Garda Dromey added that two gardaí were hospitalised arising out of the incident. The woman and children were not injured. Gardaí said that the woman and children are at a secure and undisclosed location.
Garda Dromey objected to bail arising out of the seriousness of the charges. He expressed his concern that the accused would intimidate his partner and children if granted bail.
Judge Colm Roberts also heard from Sgt Pat Lyons who said that the case was getting the "full attention" of gardaí. A full incident room has been set up and a senior investigating officer has been appointed.
Defence solicitor, Frank Buttimer, applied for bail in the case. He stressed there is likely to be a delay before the case comes to court and asked that his client be realised with stringent bail conditions.
Sgt Lyons said he didn’t anticipate a delay in the case coming for hearing as a full investigation is underway.
Judge Roberts declined to grant bail given the gravity of the charges and the length of sentence which a conviction could attract. The accused was remanded in custody to appear in court on October 6th next by video link. DPP directions are expected to be given at the next court hearing.
