DREW Harris has defended garda handling of the Evan Fitzgerald case after the gunman killed himself with a gun in a Carlow Shopping Centre after being arrested for buying guns from undercover cops.
The Garda Commissioner has warned that “people will see why this was entirely proportionate” when others linked to the case are dealt with in the courts.
Evan Fitzgerald, 22, was arrested last year as part of an investigation into the sale of weapons on the dark net.
Undercover gardai arranged to meet Fitzgerald and two others and carried out a “controlled delivery” where they provided decommissioned guns from garda stores to the three men.
Gardai then swooped on the men and arrested them over firearms charges.
In the run up to his court date, Fitzgerald went on to steal a shotgun from a neighbour and went to Fairgreen Shopping Centre in Carlow where fired a number of shots in the air before turning the weapon on himself and taking his life.
The 22-year-old has been described as a “vulnerable” person who was obsessed with guns.
Former Justice Minister Michael McDowell raised the case in the Seanad this week and accused gardai of entrapment.
Garda Commissioner Drew Harris was this afternoon quizzed about the case in the Public Accounts Committee where he launched a staunch defence of the actions of the undercover gardai.
He said: “I do believe the operation was necessary.
“I’ve reported to the Minister on the operation and a file was submitted to the DPP as well and they accepted that file and there were charges preferred in respect of those firearms but also other items including explosives.
“I do think in terms of public safety and the danger there was to the public that that operation was fully warranted and proportional.”
Pressed on the issue by Labour TD Eoghan Kenny, the Commissioner claimed details that will emerge from the courts on the case will justify the gardai’s actions.
He said: “This matter is still before the courts.
“There are still two individuals who are before the courts and I don’t want to elaborate further but I think once more details emerge through the courts process people will then see for themselves actually why this operation was entirely proportional.”
The Commissioner told Fine Gael’s James Geoghegan that he noted Senator McDowell’s entrapment accusations and has referred them to the Ombudsman due to the seriousness of the charge made in the Seanad.
The Commissioner said that there was some incorrect information circulating about the case.
He said the guns used during the “controlled delivery” operation were taken back by gardai.
He clarified that the gun Evan Fitzgerald took to the Carlow shopping centre had been stolen during a burglary.
Gardai also later found another gun and an imitation gun as part of searches carried out after the Carlow shooting and they were unaware of how Fitzgerald obtained these guns.
DAISY Lowe looked every inch the beautiful bride as she married Jordan Saul in their “wild and romantic” wedding.
Surrounded by her celebrity friends, model Daisy, 36, said “I do” to her long term partner Jordan.
Daisy and property developer Jordan, 31 wanted the theme of the wedding to be “wild and romantic” to celebrate their love.
The Strictly star was a beautiful bride in her Vivienne Westwood Couture gown.
Speaking to British Vogue about her wedding dress, she told them: “When I put it on, I just lit up from the inside out.
“It’s very fitting that I will be wearing her gown for my special day,”
The bride completed her stunning look with a gorgeous tennis bracelet by The Vault London, a Lulu Guinness shell bag and crystal-dotted Jimmy Choos.
While her handsome groom Jordan wore a tuxedo by Richard James.
The couple’s guest list of course included her well known celebrity pals Alexa Chung, Pixie Geldof and Nick Grimshaw.
The Somerset wedding saw guests dine in a vintage marquee before heading off to a barn to dance into the night.
Daisy had her hen do just last week and shared the evening with her followers.
She wore a stunning sheer lace white dress that plunged at the front, and completed her bridal look with a small veil.
Taking to Instagram, the model gushed: “Day 1 of my hen aka #HereForTheLoweJobs. My heart feels like it’s going to EXPLODE.”
She went on to thank best pals Portia and Tilda for planning her “dream sleepover”, calling the experience “one of the best days of my life”.
The night ended with dancing, laughter, and a round of “Daisy Bingo” crafted by her friends.
Daisy gave a special shoutout to photographer @pixielevinson for capturing the magical moments, allowing everyone else to be totally present.
“You are such a gift, Pix xxx,” she added.
Daisy and Jordan got married exactly five years on from when they met in June 2020.
The happy couple had a chance encounter while out walking their dogs on London’s Hampstead Heath.
After a whirlwind romance, Daisy announced her pregnancy in October 2022, after announcing their engagement the month before.
Daisy said at the time: “I wanted to share some news with you. Jordan and I are having a baby.
“We are absolutely bursting at the seams with happiness. I’m oscillating wildly between excitement & nervousness with a dash of morning sickness thrown in for good measure! Big love to all of you.”
The Strictly alum then gave birth to their daughter Ivy the following year.
Daisy found her happy ever after with Jordan after a series of failed romances with famous faces including Dr Who star Matt Smith and DJ Mark Ronson.
She also dated One Direction’s Harry Styles and rapper Tinie Tempah.
WITH so many models on the market, finding a new TV can feel overwhelming.
Before you rush out and buy the biggest telly available, ask yourself, ‘what size TV should I buy?’ to save yourself some money and time.
If you click on a link in this story we may earn affiliate revenue.
If you’ve already reviewed our roundup of the best 4K UK TV deals, then you’re ready to purchase – now it’s just a matter of finding the right size.
You may also find our article on how to measure a TV helpful.
Don’t be scared to wall mount your TV either – our ‘How to wall mount a TV‘ step-by-step guide covers everything you need to know.
When choosing a TV size, it’s a good idea to consider the dimensions of the room and the viewing distance.
This will help you select a TV size that provides an optimal viewing experience without being too large or too small for your space.
It’s also important to think about whether you want to mount the TV to the wall or place it on a TV stand.
This can change the viewing distance and space available for the TV to fill.
Wall mounting a TV can give you an extra foot of viewing distance and might allow for a larger screen size.
Here’s a rundown of TV screen sizes and ideal viewing distances.
The easiest thing to do is to work out where you want to position the TV, measure the distance to the seats in the room, and consult the table below.
Expert guidance suggests the following optimal viewing distances:
TV size: 32 inches – Viewing distance: seven feet
TV size: 40 to 43 inches – Viewing distance: eight feet
TV size: 48 to 50 inches – Viewing distance: nine to 10 feet
TV size: 55 inches – Viewing distance: 11 to 12 feet
TV size: 65 inches – Viewing distance: 13 feet
For a typical UK living room, a 55-inch to 65-inch TV is generally recommended as the optimal size.
TVs of this size provide a good balance between immersive viewing and not overwhelming the room.
Some households prefer a larger screen for a more cinematic experience, while others opt for a smaller screen that doesn’t dominate the room.
32-inch TVs are often a good fit for a bedroom as they offer a comfortable viewing experience in smaller spaces.
For larger bedrooms, a 55-inch TV can offer an immersive viewing experience without taking over the space.
However, the key to remember is that the viewing distance should be appropriate.
TV screens have been growing in size since their inception.
While old TVs maxed out at around 40 inches, nowadays you can get over double that.
Generally, modern TVs vary from 32 inches all the way to the world’s largest TV at 325 inches, although domestic models tend to stop at around 80 inches.
It’s also important to consider what resolution you want.
The better the resolution, the more expensive your telly will be, so if in doubt, it is a good idea to stick to a 4K TV.
Resolution is measured by how many pixels the TV has, meaning you can sit closer to the TV before it begins to pixelate.
This refers to TVs with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels.
These are best for smaller TVs that you are going to watch from a distance, so 32 or 40 inches.
If you are going for a TV bigger than 40 inches, it is best to boost the resolution to 4K.
Commonly known as Ultra HD or UHD, this screen would have a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels.
Most smart TVs have this as standard as it offers four times the pixel resolution of a HD TV.
8K is the next step in resolution, offering 7680 x 4320 pixels, and is also known as Ultra HD.
If you have the budget, this could be a great option; however, the market is still thin for this type of TV.
Generally, for Full HD TVs, a good rule of thumb is to sit 1.5 to 2.5 times the diagonal screen size away.
For 4K TVs, a closer viewing distance of 1 to 1.5 times the diagonal screen size is recommended for optimal viewing.
We’ve covered TV screen sizes and ideal viewing distances in more detail above, so make sure to take a closer look.
Most major retailers stock a wide range of TV sizes.

LOVE Island fans are convinced two of the Islanders had sex after steamy scenes in the bedroom.
Wednesday night’s episode of Love Island saw Tommy Bradley’s romance with Megan Forte Clarke crumble over her snog with Conor Phillips.
But Megan and Conor weren’t the only couple who took things to the next level, according to fans.
Viewers rushed to social media after the Islanders were seen heading to bed – convinced Yasmin Pettet and Ben Holborough did the deed under the sheets.
The couple were seen moving around under the cover, with Ben saying: “I love it.”
Yasmin whispered back: “You don’t get this with a nice girl.”
One fan wrote: “Did Yasmin and Ben just do it on national tv or am I missing something?”
Another said: “Ben and Yasmin going at it and they’ve only been coupled up two days.”
Someone else commented: “Yasmin and Ben, what did I just see?”
And a fourth added: “Not Ben and Yasmin getting freaky.”
Yasmin has been taking her role as a bombshell very seriously by causing chaos in the villa.
She left Meg Moore fuming when she offered Dejon Noel Williams a threesome with her and Toni Laites.
And Yasmin later took coupled-up Harry Cooksley to the Hideaway terrace for a secret kiss.
Making her intentions clear at the time, she boldly told Harry: “I’m waiting for you to shut the f**k up and kiss me.”
ARSENAL are willing to play a waiting game to land Benjamin Sesko at a competitive price.
But the Gunners have other targets if they cannot agree terms for Sesko with RB Leipzig or for Viktor Gyokeres with Sporting Lisbon.
Former Manchester City star Julian Alvarez and Eintracht Frankfurt frontman Hugo Ekitike are also on the Arsenal shortlist.
And sporting director Andrea Berta is spinning a number of plates as he bids to land the right striker for the right fee.
Arsenal’s interest in Sesko is long-standing and remains strong.
When the Slovenia international started following the Gunners on Instagram earlier this week, some fans seized on the news as a sign that a deal was closer.
Yet SunSport understands Leipzig are yet to receive a formal bid and the delay in progress is puzzling sources in Germany.
Leipzig need to sell one or both of their big stars – Sesko and Xavi Simons – because they have no European football next season and need funds to revamp their squad.
The Bundesliga club have allegedly annoyed Sesko by insisting on suitors paying his release clause, which is thought to stand at about £68m.
But the longer the transfer window goes on, the more pressure Leipzig bosses will be under to get a deal done.

One source speculates they might be prepared to accept £60m in guaranteed payments, plus add-ons.
SunSport reported Sesko’s wage demands could be an issue for Arsenal, another reason to believe the club is not pinning all their hopes on him.
Meanwhile at Sporting, Gyokeres is kicking up a stink about the Portuguese club refusing to honour a gentleman’s agreement to let him go this summer for £59m – instead of his release clause of £85m.
The Sweden international, also a target for Manchester United and Liverpool, has long been touted as Arsenal’s second choice behind Sesko.
Some Arsenal fans are growing impatient with the club for not moving as swiftly in the summer market as rivals Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea.
And there is no doubt that boss Mikel Arteta himself would want to sign a centre forward before the squad fly to Singapore for their pre-season tour on July 19.
But there is a distinct possibility that another frontman – neither Sesko nor Gyokeres – will be on the plane.

Berta was sporting director at Atletico Madrid when Alvarez joined the club from City last year.
Despite a good season in Madrid, Alvarez is keen to return to the Premier League and his experience of English football makes him a really attractive option for Arsenal – and other clubs, including Liverpool.
Atletico would want more than the £82m they paid for the World Cup winner.
But Arsenal might consider that a price worth paying for a player who is still only 25.
Ekitike is also an intriguing option. Some stats gurus reckon the France international, 23, would be the best buy for a top Premier League club this summer.
By Jordan Davies
ARSENAL’S never-ending hunt for a world-class striker is in turmoil as deals for Benjamin Sesko and Viktor Gyokeres stall.
The Gunners were confident of doing their business quickly this summer after months of preparation by boss Mikel Arteta and new sporting director Andrea Berta.
But inflated asking prices and broken gentlemen’s agreements have derailed those plans and left Arsenal frustrated.
Sesko believed he would be allowed to leave RB Leipzig for around £60million, while SunSport understands Gyokeres was told £59m would be enough to seal his own exit.
But those price-tags have gone up, leaving Arsenal debating whether they represent value for money.
While the players’ camps are also growing restless, knowing the Gunners can only sign one of them.
So what next? Will Arsenal keep waiting in the hope of fees eventually going down? Or turn to other targets, like Frankfurt’s Hugo Ekitike?
Whatever they decide, with pre-season looming and the fixtures already out, Arteta will be desperate for them to move quickly to avoid another nearly season.
Unlike Leipzig with Sesko, current club Eintracht Frankfurt are under no pressure to cash in on Ekitike.
They will play Champions League football again next season and sold Omar Marmoush to Manchester City in January in a deal worth up to £64m.
So Eintracht can hold out for the £85m that they want for Ekitike, especially with Liverpool, Manchester United and other clubs all prepared to rival Arsenal for his signature.
Which means that if Arsenal bide their time a bit and can get Sesko for less, he could still be their man, the striker given the task of turning Arteta’s team of nearly men into winners.
But despite all the talk about Sesko and Gyokeres, the Gunners’ top target may have been someone else entirely all along.
A BURST water pipe has left a part of the major Irish town and beyond with no running water in its homes and businesses.
Tipperary Town and the surrounding area has been left without water after the water main pipe burst in Pearse Park.
Uisce Eireann revealed that the repairs on the burst water pipe are underway, but residents and businesses are warned that it may cause supply disruption throughout the day.
It was reported that the repairs will be completed by 2pm, but may take up to 5pm.
The alert for the incident said: “Repairs to a burst water main may cause supply disruptions to Tipperary Town and surrounding areas in Co Tipperary.
“Works are now scheduled to take place until 2pm on 26 June.
“We recommend that you allow three to four hours after the estimated restoration time for your supply to fully return.”
And it is also affecting Bansha, Cloonfinglass and the surrounding areas.
It is currently unknown how many customers are impacted by the unexpected outage.
The Irish Independent reported that the town’s Community Services Centre was forced to shut its doors as a result of the water outage.
However, the Meals on Wheels service remains in operation.
Tipperary’s Citizens’ Information and the INTREO office will also remain closed.
Talking to social media, the local Gable Coffee Bar cafe revealed they were forced to stop serving coffee due to the disruption to the water supply, but they remain open to serving sweet treats and snacks.
However, an hour after their announcement, their water supply was back up and running and the store was able to provide their loyal customers with their coffee fix of the day.
Near the affected Tipperary Town, residents living in Oola, Newtown, Pallasgreen, Cluggin and surrounding areas in Co Limerick were also impacted by a separate burst water main.
The national water organisation reported that work is underway to restore the water supply to the affected residents.
It is expected that the repairs will be completed by 3:30pm this afternoon.
As recommended for the previous incident, residents are encouraged to allow three to four hours after the estimated restoration time for their supply to return fully.
Those who are affected by the burst water pipes are urged to keep tabs on their official website for updates in their area.
It will provide information about the repairs, including the estimated time of completion and advice.
A HARRY Potter star has resorted to pouring bottles of strawberry milk over her hair in a “desperate” attempt to secure more OnlyFans subscribers.
The actress and comedian, 38, who started the account in March in a bid to pay off debts and raise £8,000 to fix “death trap” electrics in her house, has lost followers after refusing to go nude on the subscription service.
Her latest milk-based efforts have just left the London-born star “disappointed” and suffering from brain freeze.
Jessie Cave – who charges £4.30 a month to subscribe to her “niche hair content” page – wrote in a June 19th Substack post: “It’s been over 100 days of running ragged with my hair, desperately trying to keep up the supply to the OnlyFans content conveyor belt.
“I have lost subscribers. I feel sad about that, but glad that the people who continuously messaged “nude? When will u be nude? Go nude or I’m gone” have left to pester other creators.
“I did my first wet hair Wednesday that didn’t involve water. I poured two bottles of Yazoo strawberry milk over my head and got brain freeze.
“I was really pleased with the video, as the green strappy dress I was wearing looked great contrasted with the pink milk – but was disappointed by the number of people who bought it.”
Jessie is haemorrhaging OnlyFans subscribers because she is ”tame“, compared to some who post explicit content on the site.
But she recently had an influx of OnlyFans tips – where subs send extra money for content they particularly enjoy – after realising she had accidentally shared a video of herself in see-through tights and flesh-coloured underwear.
She wrote: “I did a video of me plaiting my hair last week in a T-shirt and black tights.
“I didn’t watch the video back before I posted and wondered why it had gotten so many likes and tips later that evening. It turns out the tights were a little see-through and I was wearing flesh-coloured knickers.
“Is it that simple? It would be so easy to go down to my knickers and bra, but how would I feel in two months’ time? Yes, the subscribers are going down because I’m tame.”
While Jessie is “so close” to achieving the financial goals she set out when she started the service, the former Trollied star recently splashed out £300 on linen sheets to be used as background for content – just because a subscriber said he was “bored” with her posts.
She wrote: “Recently I spent £300 on linen sheets as some people commented that they were bored with my background. How deeply pathetic of me to dash to John Lewis to buy some super king sheets because a man was bored with me.”
The actress – who shot to fame as Harry Potter’s Lavender Brown, the eccentric love interest of Ron Weasley – has now become “obsessed” with social media, and she “agonises” over her OnlyFans subscriber numbers.
In a June 10th Substack post, she wrote: “I don’t remember not being obsessed with social media.
HARRY Potter star Jessie Cave has launched an OnlyFans page to rake in cash following her movie fame. Yet who are the richest stars from the film franchise?
According to reports, protagonist Daniel Radcliffe, 35, who played magician Harry, is now worth around £100million.
Emma Watson 35, who played Hermione Granger and the lead in Beauty and the Beast, is sitting pretty with £61million.
Harry Potter author JK Rowling, 59 – who famously went from living on benefits to being a multi-millionaire within five years – is now worth a staggering £1.2billion.
Meanwhile Rupert Grint, 36, who played Ron Weasley, has an estimated net worth of £40million.
I don’t consume it, but I agonise about numbers, afraid that if they drop, I will lose customers and lose an income and suddenly it’s all over and I’m back to being desperate.”
Jessie previously told how she had “a sense of shame” for creating an account on OnlyFans, and she resorted to spanking herself with her hair to earn more subs.
She said in a May 5th Substack post: “I tried to get a video of A [husband Alfie Brown] holding my plaits and gently spanking my back with them but I laughed too much.”
