A MAN HAS been arrested as a result of a previous assault, which left the victim with ‘serious injuries’. 

On August 4, a man in his 40’s was arrested and detained at Ennis Garda Station after leaving hurting another male on July 31.

The incident in question saw a driver sitting in his car in Abbey Street Car Park, when a male kicked his door. The driver got out to speak to this male and received a punch to his face. 

As a result, the driver received serious injuries to his eye. The perpetrator was arrested and detained under the provisions of Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act and was later charged with an offence contrary to Section 3 Non-Fatal Offences Against the Person Act 1997.

He was brought in custody before a special sitting of Ennis District Court where bail was objected to and he was remanded in custody.
