No bail for man accused of attack

Jamie Saunders, aged 27, of 17 Glentrasna, The Glen, Cork, was arrested and brought before Cork District Court yesterday where Det Garda Jim Kearney objected to bail. He said it was alleged Jamie Saunders rang his uncle, Michael Saunders, and threatened him on July 14. It was further alleged Jamie Saunders later went to his uncle’s house at Father Dominic Rd armed with a knife and assaulted Michael Saunders with a car jack causing a wound to his head which required him to be hospitalised.
Det Garda Kearney said there was allegedly another incident a month ago when Jamie Saunders went to the same address on June 13 and allegedly threatened his uncle, kicked in his front door, and caused €60 worth of damage.
