A post headed ‘HIDDEN DANGERS’ goes on to state:

‘Speedy recovery to the two Garda members from Roxboro Road station in Limerick whom were injured by two loose horses.

‘One of our colleagues remains in hospital with a broken arm and head wounds. The job of the Frontline is hugely unpredictable.

‘We thank you.

A Garda spokesperson added:
