Now we’d all go to any lengths to protect what we hold dear, whether it’s our family, friends, pets, car or house there’s a dedication to keeping the things we love, safe. So, when a Co Wicklow man received a repossession order notice, he decided to barricade himself in his family home and launch a lengthy stand-off with officials who were trying to repossess his property. Perfectly Normal.
The man in question is Plant Hire company owner Dermot Ivers and his chosen industry came in very handy when needing to erect a sturdy barricade. Mr Ivers used his own machinery to bulldoze a front wall at the semi-detached house and then placed a digger, tractor unit and numerous vans in the garden to keep the repo man out. The stand-off continues.
