GARDAI HAVE FOUND NO EVIDENCE OF CRIMINAL DAMAGE, FOLLOWING AN INVESTIGATION INTO AN INCIDENT IN WHICH A CAMPAIGN CAR BELONGING TO DANA ROSEMARY SCALLON SUFFERED A TYRE BLOWOUT.

IT HAPPENED NEAR THE TOLLBRIDGE ON THE M4 LAST TUESDAY NIGHT, WHILE DANA WAS RETURNING TO DUBLIN AFTER CANVASSING IN CARRICK-ON-SHANNON.

DANA'S HUSBAND WAS DRIVING AT THE TIME, WHILE THE CANDIDATE HERSELF WAS ASLEEP IN THE BACK OF THE CAR.

INITIALLY, DANA AND HER CAMPAIGN TEAM CLAIMED THE TYRE COULD HAVE BEEN DELIBERATELY DAMAGED, BUT GARDA FORENSIC INVESTIGATORS BELIEVE THE DAMAGE TO THE TYRE WAS MOST LIKELY CAUSED BY BEING DRIVEN WHILE IT WAS SOFT OR FLAT.
