Cobh remembers stabbing victim as a ‘quiet man who never harmed anyone’

Tributes have been paid to the “quiet and unassuming” Cork man Jack Barry who was brutally stabbed to death in front of his girlfriend outside their apartment in London over the weekend.

The 52-year-old, originally from Cobh, had been living in London since 1983 and worked in construction.

It is understood he was returning from a local bar with his girlfriend, Sabrina Finn, 35, on Sunday evening when he came across a group of teenagers attempting to enter the apartment block where the couple were living in Edmonton in north London.
