A 47 year old Wexford man was brought before Wexford District Court yesterday charged in relation to Breaches of Covid-19 regulations.
Christopher Cussens of The Ballagh in Enniscorthy was arrested at Pettits Store in Wexford on Sunday afternoon and was charged with failing to wear a face mask in the store and with refusing to give his name and address to Gardai.
