He was released without charge yesterday and a file is being prepared for the DPP. Meanwhile the 16 year-old appeared before Wexford district court this morning on foot of a bench warrant which was issued at a previous sitting of Wicklow District court. It came about after he failed to turn up for a court appearance there in respect of outstanding charges and was not related to the fatal road collision in Ferns.
