More time given to State to compile evidence for Smithfield horse fair case

The State has been allowed two weeks to complete the book of evidence in the case of a teenager who allegedly shot two men during rioting at Dublin's Smithfield horse fair in March.

The boy (aged 17), who cannot be identified because he is a juvenile, had been remanded in custody earlier after he was charged at the Dublin Children's Court with violent disorder and unlawful possession of an “improvised firearm” in connection with the non-fatal shooting on March 6 last.
