A MOTORBIKE GARDA was injured in Dublin this morning in a collision with a car.

A garda spokesperson said the incident happened this morning on the Drumcondra Road, in Dublin 9 – the motorcyclist, who was on duty, suffered non life threatening injuries.

“The collision involved a car and an official Garda motorcycle and occurred at approximately 9:45am this morning, at the junction of Dargle Road and Drumcondra Road Lower.
