A 19-year-old youth has pleaded guilty to intentionally or recklessly causing serious harm to a man who was left brain damaged following a suspected hit and run in Dublin last year.

Christopher O'Rourke (aged 25) was hospitalised with serious brain injuries after he was knocked down at around midday on April 19, 2009 in the Bluebell area of south Dublin.
