This morning.
Fishamble Street, Dublin 8.
The area behind the Dublin City Council offices has been cordoned off.
A private ambulance left the scene around 9:30am.
More as we get it.

…Eoin O’Brion has just said on radio that this was the body of a young man who had been sleeping rough…
Heartbreaking. May he Rest In Peace.
shure where would ye get it..
RIP.
This is utterly disgusting that someone dies on the street.
Oooh, oooh! Private ambulances near the CoCo building? Have we found another Covid patient zero to be hauled off in a containment unit? Naah, just another dead homeless guy.
Can we have a bit less of the clickbaity sensationalism please.
RIP to the poor man.
Daisy, we don’t do clickbait.
If anything, Leather Jacket Guy was the antithesis.
I thought he was enormously talented but yes.
Why would you say that Bertie
LJG had very low commentary action as I recall
And the place is a loss without his quirky harmlessness
IMO anyway
Very little spoof and craic in the mix of stuff now
Maybe that suits
I dunno
But I’d love to see him back
I liked that he didn’t take himself too seriously
And I can’t remember a time he got stroppy with any of the comments
Or took to Twitter to call some of us names etc
I’m open to correction of course
But he was one of the rare contributors here that wasn’t precious about his stuff
Read the comments, he left by popular demand.
https://www.broadsheet.ie/?s=leather+jacket+guy
Hardly popular demand
Now come on
I could re-enter any one of a dozen (at least) early Frilly Keane’s with far more
And far less polite
Demands for cessation
And criticism
Mainly of myself
But Broadsheet themselves shipped a quare load of aggro
Lads he didn’t ‘leave’ and he wasn’t a ‘contributor’ broadsheet just reposted his you tube videos to annoy people and then one day they stopped.
I miss the outrage . BS should start putting up his videos again
Tony, I sincerely enjoyed Leather Jacket Guy and miss his waxy head and boozy antics to this day.
have a + xxxxxV from me there
If there’s room for Poetry by the Higgins
and a dozen retakes on SwingGate
or whatever news item is still slashing over the previous week and weekend
then there’s room for LJG
I’m commenting on your comment about commenting about LJG to let you know that we don’t comment on LJG.
WTF
like an organised withdrawal?
well I obviously didn’t get the memo
in any case
that’s pathetic – an organised abstention between ye is just one big group sulk really
build yere own site
or just ignore the LJG threads
I know, which I why the way this article was worded jarred.
