A man who was spotted by motorists pointing a gun at passing cars from a bridge over the M50 motorway later told gardaí he was “bored and messing,” a court has heard. Those reports concluded that Mazur had psychological issues but did not have a mental disorder. Garda David Sheridan told Maddie Grant BL, prosecuting, that a motorist on the M50 travelling between the Tallaght and Firhouse junctions saw a male on a mesh covered bridge spanning the motorway pointing a gun at traffic. She gave a description of the male and Mazur was apprehended a short time afterwards by the armed support unit. Mr Lynam said Mazur was originally from Holland and he did not have a great deal of information on the young man.
