Car driven at crowd in Irish graveyard

The incident happened at St Patrick's Cemetery in Dundalk on Sunday afternoon.

A man has been seriously injured and taken to hospital after being hit by a car at a cemetery in County Louth.

The incident happened at St Patrick's Cemetery in Dundalk on Sunday afternoon.

Gardaí (Irish police) said a "dark coloured car drove at a number of people".

The car then drove out of the cemetery onto the public road and collided with a number of parked cars before coming to a stop.

A man in his late 20s, believed to be the driver, was arrested at the scene.

Irish national broadcaster RTÉ reported that the cemetery was crowded at the time.

Several other people received minor injuries, gardaí said.

'Very frightening'
The injured man was taken to Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital in Drogheda.

It happened during the annual blessing of the graves at about 15:40 local time.

An eyewitness who spoke to RTÉ said some people had to jump out of the path of the car.

The priest taking the service told RTÉ it was a "very frightening" experience.

Fr Mark O'Hagan said the incident happened towards the end of the service.

Down with this sort of thing!

They downloaded it onto every Apple device in the world.

Maybe just part of the Kinahan / Hutch feud.

I guess the Irish forgot how to deal with people driving cars into their funeral processions.

When I first heard about it I thought it was another gypsy feud in a graveyard as it wouldn't have been the first time.

I raise what's left of my drink to you @CWCissey for that subheading. I say what's left as I spat half of it out at my screen.

I'm hoping it's just a feckin' eejit.

We all know if there's no picture or white man isn't specified the probability of kebab goes up considerably.

Perhaps, but nobody hates the Irish more than the Irish themselves.

I'm surprised this wasn't the first post:

I'm pretty sure even it was a kebab he too was probably also drunk. The cloud of beer farts and rotting booze vomit stench engulfing that country is enough to get anyone wasted.

Paddies are basically white kebabs anyway.

He looks and sounds pretty Irish for a gypsy. Is there some kind of joke I'm missing here?

Irish gypsies, also known as Irish Travellers (Polite) and Pikeys (Impolite). Think Brad Pitt in Snatch if you've seen it, just not nearly so pretty.
