One young man was stabbed to death and another is fighting for his life after a hammer attack following separate violent attacks in their own homes in Cork over the weekend.
The father of the fatal stabbing victim and the mother of the assault victim were also injured in the brutal attacks but both are expected to make full recoveries from their physical injuries.
