'Sword attack' teenager released on bail

A teenager charged in connection with a burglary where a man and woman were allegedly attacked with a sword has been released on conditional bail.

The 17-year-old boy was remanded in custody by the Dublin Children’s Court last week after he was charged with aggravated burglary and assault causing harm to the man and woman, who are in their twenties, at Park Hill West, in Tallaght, on the morning of New Years’ Day last.
