Four people charged over violent disturbance that left one man hospitalised

The alleged violent disturbance occurred in Clonmel on Thursday.

LAST UPDATE | 10 Apr 2020

FOUR PEOPLE ARE due to appear in court tomorrow following an alleged violent disorder incident in Co Tipperary that left one man hospitalised. 

Gardaí from Clonmel were alerted to reports of a violent disturbance involving a group of people at Cooleens Close in Clonmel on Thursday shortly after 1am. 

Gardaí dispersed the group and arrested one man under the public order act at the scene. He was later charged and released.

Another man required hospital treatment following the incident but has since been discharged. 

In a follow-up operation this morning, members of the Armed Support Unit along with detectives and members of the drugs unit based in Clonmel, searched three houses in the Clonmel area. 

During the searches, three men (aged 30s, 40s and 60s) and a woman (40s) were arrested.

All four are due to appear before a special sitting of Clonmel District Court tomorrow morning at 11.30am.

Gardaí are appealing for witnesses and in particular to anyone who was in the Cooleens Close area of Clonmel in the early hours of Thursday morning to come forward.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Clonmel Garda Station 052-6177640 or the Garda Confidential Line 1800 666 111.

    Anyone, absolutely anyone who still tries to tell me this isn’t the kremlins fault, whatever the catalysts, reasons or defensive objectives, is a not just naive but dangerously so. They’ve admitted to bombing the hospital because of ‘nationalist battalions’ having set up there.. And yet I see pregnant women on stretchers and injured. Its a hospital, a mater hospital. The lower level of hell is reserved for people who attack the most vulnerable.

    @Dawn Harvey: That line about the nationalists controlling the hospital was sickening, right out of the Israel ‘Hamas is everywhere’ playbook :(

    @Roy Dowling: you’re right Roy that was a terrible decision by the US chain of command and MSF should pursue their calls for an independent enquiry. It’s probably a slightly different scenario though as the Afghans called in that strike because they were under fire from Taliban forces in that building, 15 of them who were firing from within apparently. But absolutely a terrible act. Not sure what the dictator’s excuse will be for flattening a hospital full of babies and pregnant women will be though.

    @Roy Dowling: — The Kunduz hospital incident was an American screw up, they attacked the wrong building. The Russians knew which building they were attacking, or Lavrov wouldn’t have said that that the hospital was a base for nationalists. The Russians were either acting on bad intelligence or Lavrov was lying through his teeth. Given his previous performances I’m inclined to believe the latter.

    @Roy Dowling — Do you think the Russians have excuses, because it’s the Russian attack on a hospital that the article refers to?

    @Roy Dowling: It started the moment Putin invaded the Ukraine, leading to a series of events that will ultimately culminate in nuclear annihilation. From what I have seen since the war started, there is absolutely nothing to suggest that the genie can be put back in the bottle.

    @Genera L Consensus: You think Putin will try take on the US when he cant even take Ukraine? His air force still hasn’t got air superiority over Ukrainian skies despite massively outnumbering the Ukrainian air force. He’s mechanised division are is suffering from several mechanical breakdown that it’s basically crawling across Ukraine. His soldiers don’t seem interested in fighting. You really think Putin is looking at his militaries performance in Ukraine so far and is thinking he’ll take on the US next?. Seriously this invasion has shown us that the only power Russia holds over the world is the thousands of nukes has. Ww3 isn’t going to happen anytime soon.
