A 19-year-old man accused of carrying out a robbery on another man outside a shop in Cork city centre had the case against him adjourned so that CCTV of the incident can be shown to the judge at Cork District Court.

Sergeant John Kelleher said at Cork District Court that Nathan O’Callaghan of 5 The Rise, Sweetfield, Youghal, County Cork, was charged with robbery and that the DPP directed that the case was suitable to be dealt with summarily at Cork District Court, rather than by judge and jury at the circuit court.
