Family’s second tragedy as son stabbed to death

TRAGEDY visited a Co Tipperary family for the second time yesterday morning when their 35-year-old son was stabbed to death in a Clonmel apartment.

Thirteen years ago, they lost another son who was killed in a motorcycle accident on his 19th birthday.

Father-of-four Declan Molloy, originally from the village of Drangan in South Tipperary, who had been living in a flat on Mitchel Street, Clonmel, for 13 months, died after a violent incident sometime before 3am yesterday morning.
