Teenager faces court after 'spilt pint' row

A teenager, who allegedly slashed a man’s face with a glass during a hotel bar row over a spilt pint, was today served with a book of evidence and sent forward for trial to the Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.

The 17-year-old boy, who is on bail, had been charged at the Children’s Court with assault causing harm to man, at the Russell Court Hotel, on Dublin’s Harcourt Street, on May 23 last year.
