Plain clothes armed gardai will front cordoned-off areas where crowds gather to get a glimpse of Joe Biden in a bid to limit access to the US President.
The Irish Mirror can reveal that as part of the major security measures being put in place to ensure Mr Biden’s safety, locations where punters can engage with him will be “front-filled” by gardai.
Sources said US Secret Service agents will also be liaising with the detectives to ensure there is no threat to the President’s safety as he shakes people’s hands.
