Man covered in blood ran from house with knife

A man covered in blood ran from a house with a kitchen knife in his hand at the height of a domestic disturbance.

Martin Barry, of 30 Harbour View Rd, Knocknaheeny, Cork, pleaded guilty to charges arising out of a number of drunken incidents and he was jailed yesterday by Judge Olann Kelleher for four months.

The judge said: “The most serious matter was the knife, waving the knife to the public, and he was covered in blood himself.”
