Teenager struck by hurley awarded €550,000
A hurley thrown across a schoolyard struck a 13-year-old first-year student in the head causing him injuries which altered the course of his life — and yesterday the teenager was awarded €550,000 compensation by the school’s insurers.
Gary Hynds had nothing to do with the group of boys who were messing with hurleys on that day back in April 2012 but he is still living with the consequences today.
