Oisin won't Lego of Garda dream..

A BOY with a love for Lego blocks has asked Santa Claus to help him build his way towards a career in An Garda Siochana.

Oisin Lyons, eight, from St Mary’s Park, Limerick, has already constructed a Garda station, Garda helicopter, garda motorbikes, patrol cars, Garda boats and prisoner cells.

But his Christmas wish is to keep on building until he becomes a real-life officer.

Mum Aoife said: “Oisin wants to be a garda when he gets older – he’s really quiet, but he’s very good with elderly people and younger kids, and he loves helping out and doing good deeds for people.
