Swiss police investigate stabbing of Corkman

Swiss police are continuing to investigate how a 45-year-old Corkman died from a stabbing in an apartment in the city of Neuchâtel.

One theory surrounding the death of Patrick Broderick, who was born in Millstreet and worked as an international consultant with headhunting firm SpenglerFox, was that he may have stabbed himself accidentally.

A woman who was said to have been in his apartment at the time ran from the scene and alerted a neighbour who in turn contacted the emergency services.
