Man was stabbed after breaking up threesome in his home

A man was “lucky to be alive” after being stabbed when he tried to evict three people engaging in a threesome at an impromptu Halloween party in his apartment.

Collins Kato, aged 28, originally from Uganda, suffered multiple stab wounds to his neck and back in the violent assault.

Sergeant Catriona Houlihan told Ennis Circuit Criminal Court that the party had started when Mr Kato had invited a girl over to view a room to rent. She was accompanied by another woman and the two had brought drink.
