Innocent man’s nose broken during assault

An innocent man was caught in the crossfire of a fight on a late night mini-bus taxi and had his nose broken and some teeth loosened.

The man responsible for the assault has since paid the injured party €15,000 in settlement of a civil action.

Aidan Condon, aged 25, of 8 Elm Place, Kilworth, Co Cork, faced sentencing at Cork Circuit Criminal Court yesterday.
