Here ya go:

A 48-year-old man has appeared in court charged in connection with yesterday's bomb scare at Dublin Airport.

John McHugh, who has an address at Mountjoy Square in Dublin, has been remanded in custody with consent to bail.

Mr McHugh has been ordered to sign on daily at Fitzgibbon Street Garda Station and to stay away from Dublin and Shannon Airports.


Gardaí told the court the man's actions led to Dublin Airport being shut down for two hours yesterday.

Flight schedules at the airport are returning to normal today after the chaos caused by the hoax bomb alert.

The airport reopened at around 4pm yesterday afternoon, but passengers faced huge delays and a heavy backlog of traffic on the roads surrounding the airport for the rest of the evening.

Most flights did eventually take off after a long delay but Ryanair cancelled nearly 20 of its departures to and from Britain and Cork.
