Video of Kildare Gardai with 'new recruit' has gone around the world!


An adorable video of a rookie Garda on the beat in Co Kildare has gone viral around the world with hundreds of thousands of views.
Little Ceejay McArdle (6), who has been battling leukaemia since the age of two, recently completed his last day of treatment at Our Lady's Children's Hospital in Crumlin, Dublin.
Kildare Gardai hosted "Garda" Ceejay last week and he was seen visiting Kilcullen and the Curragh Plains.
The hilarious video has since featured on the websites and social media channels of dozens of media organisations around the world including ABC News in the US which has 12 million followers on Facebook.
With the help of local officers, Ceejay - in a miniature Garda uniform - assisted with checkpoints in both locations and showed a 'zero tolerance' towards motorists.
"Garda" McArdle also inspected the Garda Helicoptor, a Fire Engine and Defence Forces vehicles along with meeting members of the public while walking the beat.
This visit was organised by Kilcullen Gardai with assistance from Brady Family Ham and Kildare GAA, who provided a Jersey which had been signed by the Kildare Football Panel.
Twomilehouse ICA also knitted "Bravery Blankies" for sick children in a number of hospitals.
Kildare Gardai said thanks to the members of the Defence Forces in the Curragh and the Kildare Fire Service for joining in to make Ceejay's day special.
