Anti-drugs campaigner stabbed in leg
Terence Alcock, who has been a prominent opponent of drug abuse in east Cork since his 21-year-old son Anthony died of a cocaine overdose in April 2006, was attacked in the centre of Cobh town at approximately 12.50pm yesterday afternoon.
The 45-year-old was walking in the Pearse Square area of the town when an individual in his late 20s known to Mr Alcock stepped out of a car parked in the vicinity.
