Three men have been jailed for a total of 12 years for their parts in a brawl that led to two American tourists being beaten with glass bottles.

A court has heard how an American tourist still has glass embedded in his face after intervening in a robbery in Temple Bar in Dublin.

This month sees the tenth staging of Reel Youth, which is making a strong case to become Ireland’s national youth film festival.

A Somali native who is due €5,000 compensation for being a gun crime victim will also spend 11 months in jail for glassing a Dublin man in the face during a nightclub fight.
