The warehouse in County Louth last night (top) and this aftternoon (top)
Up to 90 vehicles seized by gardaí were destroyed in a fire at a warehouse in Haggardstown, County Louth last night.
The facility where the blaze broke out is owned by a local towing company which has a contract to store cars seized by local officers.
Emergency services were alerted to the fire at around 7.20pm last night and gardaí and fire units responded. No-one was injured in the blaze, but it burned out of control for several hours.
Ninety vehicles.

Where there Garda files stored there too?
Is this thought to be arson?
Heisenberg.
Probably only 45 motors there!
Of course. The Gardai kept the other 45 for their taxi business.
Jewish Lightning – I’m sorry – that’s probably a new ‘racist term’ now like Spanish Flu and Irish Famine.
Old vehicles are the hardest thing to dispose. They used to be tipped over the edge of the Sally Gap ridge in the 80s and settled and rusted into the valley below.
No, it’s a racist term because it implies that Jews burn down buildings to collect insurance money.
But you knew that.
do they do that?
I heard they’ll do anything for coin.
I heard the Nigerians are all scammers.
The Americans are all cras.
The English are hooligans and the French are all cheese eating surrender monkeys.
Ye hear lots of things.
I had never heard that term before, but if it means what I think it does then there should be absolutely no doubt in anyone’s mind that it is utterly offensive
I need a little help with calibrating my offense-o-meter.
Is the term “Jewish Lightning” more offensive than “Irish Famine” or “Spanish Flu”? What about Mexican Shower? Where should that lie on the scale?
or Columbian neck-tie?
Says it all about our bilious excuse for a police force that my first though was ‘coverup’ >_<
