The entry for Johnjoe O'Connor seems to be highly dubious. Johnjoe O'Connor does not appear on the Garda Roll of Honour list; I can find no reliable sources mentioning the incident, barring one, which is a mention in this Irish Independent article which was published after the entry was added to this article (diff) and quotes the entry rather closely. Given that the death of a Garda while on active duty is a relatively rare occurrence and thereby generates a lot of media coverage, and this incident allegedly occured in 2000, so well within the Internet age, it would be covered by many online sources, but there are none, barring the one mentioned above and I would suggest some reporter might have been doing their research on Wikipedia there.
