One man headbutted, another has jaw broken in Cork, but no convictions

After hearing the evidence at Cork District Court yesterday, Judge Olann Kelleher said he could not be satisfied beyond reasonable doubt to convict either man of assaulting the other. In those circumstances, he dismissed the case against both men but bound each of them to the peace for a year.

Billy Kelly, aged 30, of 42 Glenfields Park, Ballyvolane, pleaded not guilty to assault causing harm to Stephen Mulcahy.
