Truck driven into Leinster House gates - The Irish Times - Wed, Sep 29, 2010
-snip-
A 41-year-man was arrested this morning after a cement truck was driven into the gates of Leinster House.- Irish equivelant of Congress
The words 'Toxic Bank Anglo' were displayed on the cement mixing drum of the truck.
It appeared the driver escaped through a hatch on the roof before being arrested at about 7.15am.
The man is being questioned at Pearse Street Garda station under section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act 1984. No one was injured in the incident and minor damage was caused to the gates of Leinster House.
Recovery crews initially attempted to reverse the truck from the gates but it would not move. It is understood brake lines and electric cables had been cut.
