Former Senator arrested three times at festival is arrested again outside gig venue

The former Senator who hit headlines after being arrested three times at Indiependence was again arrested this past weekend – at another distinctly musical spot.
The Irish Independent reports that James Heffernan was arrested by Gardai outside the Roisin Dubh in Galway, following an incident. He was charged with a public order offence later that day, with an appearance before the court scheduled for December 19.
The politician, who ran in the recent General Election representing the Social Democrats, gained a level of unwanted fame when arrested three times during the course of a weekend at Indiependence. On that occasion, he appeared to acknowledge his adventurous few days on Twitter – as seen below.
