Two men and a woman held by gardaí after man, 60, stabbed

TWO men and a woman with links to the notorious McCarthy Dundon gang were still being held by gardaí in Limerick last night in connection with a stabbing incident on Sunday.

The victim, a man aged 60, was attacked when a group of people went to Whitecross Gardens, Moyross, to recover a drugs debt.

Gardaí are satisfied the victim had no involvement with drugs or any criminal activity. He may have been attacked as he knew the person who, it was believed, had run up a drugs debt.
