Accused in 'face attack' remanded in custody
A convicted criminal whose assault with "a high level of gratuitous violence" on a man walking his dog may leave the victim blind for life has been remanded in custody pending sentence at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.
Leroy Dumbrell (aged 20), of Emmett Road, Inchicore has 57 previous convictions and was on bail for another assault when he attacked Mr Nigel Reid in the face causing him to permanently loose the sight in his left eye.
