A garda’s home was targetted while they were working on a road safety project at the Donegal International Rally last weekend. The frightening attack occurred last Friday afternoon, while Garda Lynch was in Donegal working on Operation Nexus. The operation is centred on a legally modified Volkswagen Golf which was seized by Gardaí during a crime swoop. Gardaí unveiled the car last weekend as a means of engaging with motor enthusiasts on legal car modifications. It’s reported that Gardaí believe the attackers learned through social media about Garda Lynch’s deployment to the Donegal Rally and possibly coordinated the attack.
