Hero cop Brian cheered on Dubs

Hero NYPD detective Brian O’Donnell will have to take another Sunday off. O’Donnell, who suffered a savage attack in Manhattan from a man wielding a meat cleaver, was cheering on the Dubs while recovering in his Long Island home Sunday. The Dublin-born O’Donnell (43) was off duty when he intercepted the man who was fleeing fellow officers in Midtown. While born in Dublin, O’Donnell, who is married with three children, grew up mostly in Offaly. --- CBS TV screengrab photo.
