Polish man was hit with fish in row over music

A specimen pollock was used to strike a Polish man in the head during a full-scale row over the relative merits of Irish and Polish dance music.

Connie Foley, aged 33, who was reeled in for questioning shortly after the violent escapade, pleaded guilty at Cork Circuit Criminal Court to a charge of assault causing harm to Marcin Mis at the victim’s flat in Youghal, Co Cork.

Garda Seán Kilgrew said Mr Mis was also struck with a full bottle of wine, as well as with the fish.
