The yob screamed 'Sick in the head, no medication' as he hacked at the Garda car with his weapon
This is the moment two Gardaí fled for their lives from a dressing gown-clad thug wielding a samurai sword.
The thug then strides into view, holding the sword. He screams at the pair and strikes the passenger side of the car with the weapon as it begins to slowly reverse. The attacker then turns and strides away again, his open dressing gown flapping around his legs in the wind. The Irish Mirror has learned that the aggressor is well-known to Gardaí and is considered a dangerous, violent figure.
