I was driving through The Meadow in Newry last night at 1am and noticed 4 young fellas surrounding what appeared to be an aged, vulnerable and intoxicated gentleman.
I turned around and they flagged me down. It turns out they had been assisting the man to get home for 90 minutes. The man was giving conflicting information, had fallen several times and they weren’t sure how to resolve the situation they had found themselves in.
I want to compliment these 4 lads for the dignified and respectful behaviour they demonstrated by looking after someone who they didn’t know. It’s nice to highlight that there are young people out there who have a healthy community spirit, have morals and are full of integrity.
I phoned 101 and the PSNI arrived 10 minutes later to take the gentleman home.
