A householder who believed that a man was urinating in an alleyway beside his home confronted him in a threatening manner with a long knife.

Inspector Finbarr O’Sullivan said the man complained to gardaí that he was merely zipping up his jacket when he was approached by the accused who accused him of urinating in the alleyway beside his house.
