The 49-year-old father of two was hit as he recorded vehicles' speeds on the side of the road on the R132 at Lanestown yesterday afternoon. He had served as a garda for 26 years and had been with the Roads Policing Unit since 2018. A devastated colleague of the officer told the Irish Independent that Gda Flatley was working an overtime shift at the time. "He was not even due to be on duty on Sunday,” the heartbroken garda added.
