Intimidation risk in Reece Cullen stabbing probe

Detectives are concerned that young people are being intimidated against co-operating with their investigation into the fatal stabbing of a teenage boy last week.

Reece Cullen, who was due to turn 17 later this month, died from a stab wound to his chest in a row with other youths in Tallaght, west Dublin, on the afternoon of January 4.

A 14-year-old boy was arrested in relation to the stabbing, but it is understood detectives were unable to glean much information in the interviews. He was released without charge.
