Two teenagers arrested for travelling in a stolen car that crashed on the Luas tracks in Dublin yesterday morning have been remanded on bail.
The two south Dublin youths, aged 15 and 17, appeared before Judge William Hamill at Dublin Children's Court in connection with the incident on the Luas Red line between Tallaght and Connolly Station.
The pair, who were supported in court by their mothers, were charged with unlawful carriage in a stolen car at Davitt Road yesterday morning.
The pair were arrested at 8.10am, and taken to Sundrive Road Garda station where they were held for questioning.
They were released at 2pm and charged. They made no reply.
Judge Hamill was told that the arrest came after the vehicle, allegedly stolen in Portlaoise, Co Laois, was driven on the Luas line. Judge Hamill remanded the pair on bail until May pending directions from the DPP.
As conditions of their bail the teenagers have to sign on daily at Sundrive Road Garda station, and obey a nightly curfew at their homes between the hours of 10pm and 8am.
