Armed Guards reclaim the streets of Limerick from 'Gangland' violence
Armed Guards reclaim the streets of Limerick from 'Gangland' violence
These exclusive videos and images capture the intense pressure that Ireland's national Police service - 'An Garda Siochana' - put on gangsters involved in organised crime in Limerick City and it's surroundings. During the first decade of the new millennium, Limerick became one of the crime capitals of Europe (a 'Gangland'), with vicious gangs taking over vast areas in the third largest city of the Republic of Ireland. Feuding, rival drug gangs instilled fear in the community, with severe beatings, assassinations and bomb detonations. In the ten years from 2000 to 2010, Limerick witnessed over 60 gang-related murders, as firearm discharges and stabbings were an almost daily occurrence. It was high time to act. With an increase in Police resources and changes to organised crime legislation, Limerick slowly recovered to become the peaceful, beautiful and quintessential Irish town it once was. This was thanks to over 100 convictions and long prison sentences handed down under anti-gang laws for various offences, ranging from threatening language right up to murder. Firearms were taken off the streets by their hundreds, leading to more than a 90% decrease in gun crime. Homicides are now almost a 'rare' occurrence in the county, with very few recorded over the last couple of years. And gangs have been dismantled from the inside out, helping cull the availability of illegal drugs in the south. The transformation of urban Limerick - once unfortunately nicknamed 'stab city' - has been down in no small part to local Gardai, law officials and community leaders, but special thanks must be reserved for the resilient people of Limerick who stood up to violent crime, took a stand and said 'NO'. This video features members of the Garda Regional Armed Support Unit (RSU, Southern Region), and; Garda Air Support Unit (GASU), Garda National Bureau of Criminal Investigation (NBCI), Garda National Surveillance Unit (NSU), Garda Emergency Response Unit (ERU) from the Garda Special Detectives Unit (SDU), all deployed by Garda National Support Services. __ Every effort has been made to protect the identity of the officers in this video. It is paramount to the safety of these officers that their identity remains unknown, and who already avail of anonymity laws in court and in the media. I do not claim to own these images, they are being used for creative/educational purposes. It is not the intention to infringe any copyright laws. Any comments deemed to be threatening, abusive, offensive, insulting and/or found to compromise the safety of others will be removed and if necessary reported to the relevant authorities. All questions will be answered. Enjoy! Video: 'Raidió Teilifís Éireann (RTE)'- published: 21 Aug 2013
