"FINE GAEL’s candidate in the Dublin Central byelection narrowly avoided serious injury yesterday afternoon when a car mounted the footpath and ran over his foot as he was leaving Bertie Ahern’s local."

Irish Times, Wednesday, May 6, 2009

What ever happened because of this? Did Paschal make a report to the Gardaí? Did he go to hospital? Was any action taken agains the driver?

The story was never followed up, and Paschal was fine a short time later,out canvassing door to door, which is pretty amazing for someone who has just been hit by a car which drove over his foot. It can't be that he just walked into the road can it? Or made the whole thing up? Strange business. Hopefully someone will raise the issue of the mysterious car accident at the meeting.
