Waterford Cllr. almost chokes on false teeth in front of Taoiseach

A Councillor says he almost choked to death on his false teeth in front of the Taoiseach in Waterford yesterday.

Fine Gael's John Carey told The Irish Mirror that he's lucky to be alive after his new dentures came loose when he took a glass of water.

Fellow Councillor Lola O'Sullivan jumped to help, with the Taoiseach ready to step in, but the drama ended when Mr Carey managed to catch his breath.
