University of Galway professor subjected to online abuse after condemning Rosscahill fire

University of Galway professor who lives in Rosscahill says he's been subjected to online abuse after he condemned the fire at the local hotel due to accommodate asylum seekers

Gardaí are continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding the weekend fire at Ross Lake House Hotel, which had been the scene of local protests
