A 20-year-old man was last night charged with the murder of a 59-year-old man whose body was found on the pavement outside his house in Co Limerick earlier this month.

Joseph Bustin from Towerfield, Croom, was charged with the murder of Liam O'Donovan of St Senan's Terrace, Croom, on November 4th when he appeared at a special sitting of Listowel District Court.

Garda Brian Kelleher told the court that Mr Bustin replied "no" when the charge was put to him.

Judge Mary O'Halloran remanded the accused in custody to Limerick Prison to appear again at Listowel District Court on November 28th.
