Cork man accused of assaulting mother before taking infant away in buggy 

Cork District Court heard the defendant's mother had to be taken to hospital for treatment for injuries sustained in the incident.

A 31-year-old man returned to his mother’s house where she was babysitting in the early hours of Saturday morning, assaulted her, and insisted while drunk that he was taking his infant child away.

That was the allegation made by Garda David O’Sullivan at Cork District Court where there was an objection to bail.
