A relapsed drug addict who threatened and assaulted a Chinese restaurant owner causing the man to sell his business has been given a four year sentence at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.
Daniel McCarthy (25), of Spencer Dock, North Wall, told the victim he would burn down his restaurant and his house, punched him in the eye and called him "a Chinese c***" after he was asked to leave the premises on Sherrif Street.
