Young Corkman hit another on head with pint glass during fight between groups, court told

“If he pays compensation I will take it into consideration. If there is no compensation he will put himself in jail,” Judge Kelleher said.

The defendant's solicitor said: "The most serious aspect is that he had a pint glass in his hand. It was not intentional – he swung his hand with the glass in it.” File picture

A young man was struck with a pint glass in the back of the head during an altercation between groups drinking in Crosshaven.

Now this assailant has been warned that if he fails to gather compensation he will be putting himself in jail for this and another assault carried out on the same night.
