A teenager has been jailed after he pushed an older man off his mobility scooter “for fun”, fracturing the man's hand and snapping his dentures in two.

The man in his sixties had been standing outside a Centra shop in Dublin city centre smoking a cigarette when Elliot Toale, now aged 18, took his mobility scooter away from him and rolled around on it for a short time.
