Off-duty garda knocked unconscious during street attack
He was the second off-duty garda to be attacked and badly injured in Kerry over the weekend following an assault on another officer in Listowel early on Saturday.
A 27-year-old Cork-based garda, who was back in his home town of Kenmare for the weekend, was assaulted in the Main Street around 3.45am on Sunday. Gardaí in the town are still trying to piece together what exactly happened and what caused the dispute between the man and a number of local youths. It is not known if he was specifically targeted by his attackers.
