Unprovoked attack on couple leaves man ‘critical’

GARDAÍ are preparing a file for the Director of Public Prosecutions in relation to a violent and apparently unprovoked assault on a man and his girlfriend.

The man, aged in his 30s, received serious head injuries and is in intensive care at Beaumont Hospital in north Dublin, where his condition is critical.

The vicious assault occurred at an inner city flats complex near St Stephen’s Green last Thursday night week.
