Man accused of knife and axe ‘rampage’ is refused bail

The High Court has refused to grant bail to a man aged 26 charged over an alleged knife and axe “rampage” in Dublin.

Luke Kane, who had an address at Crosswaite Park, Dun Laoghaire, Co Dublin, is charged with breach of the peace, criminal damage, and assault in connection with an incident on July 3, 2015 at North Circular Rd, where he has also been living.

After being refused bail at Dublin District Court, he brought an application to the High Court, which was opposed by the State.
