A court has heard how a man had no saliva left in his mouth after repeatedly spitting inside the back of a patrol car following his arrest in Ballymahon last week.
Garda Keith O Brien told last week s sitting of Longford District Court of how he had also been forced to record David O Leary (32) 2 St Matthew s Park, Ballymahon, Co Longford making a series of threats to him and his family.
He said the tone and choice of words used by the accused went “far beyond” what he had previously experienced as a rank and file garda officer.
