Wexford gardaí investigating after man is stabbed in the face and chest
On July 10, Gardaí responded to the emergency call where a man (30s) from New Ross was attacked with a knife. Just before midnight in the Templeshelin area of Adamstown, Co. Wexford, multiple stab wounds were inflicted to the man's face and chest. Upon the arrival of the emergency services, the man was brought to hospital where it's believed he required over 100 stitches, however, while his injuries were described as very serious, they were not life-threatening and he was later discharged. Gardaí have since been carrying out patrols in the rural area as they monitor the situation. There are definite lines of enquiry ongoing and gardaí are calling for those who may have witnessed the incident or are in possession of information, to make themselves known to New Ross Gardaí. Separately, gardai are also aware of the theft of items from outside The Cracked Teaport in New Ross town centre.

A former sports figure extradited from the US to face multiple allegations of the sexual abuse of girls in Ireland in the 1970s and 1980s was remanded in custody yesterday. Pic: Colin Keegan, Collins, Dublin. The girls were minors, aged between eight and 15. Following extradition proceedings at the request of the Irish authorities, the man was arrested at Terminal 2 in Dublin Airport at 5.56 am yesterday. He was then brought to appear before Judge Michele Finan at Dublin District Court. Dressed in a pale green jumper, grey shorts, white socks and brown slip-on shoes, he sat silently in his wheelchair throughout the brief hearing. He has not indicated a plea, and there was no application for bail. State solicitor Rory Staines told Judge Finan that the Director of Public Prosecutions has directed that the man face 'trial on indictment in the Central Criminal Court'. It is expected that the prosecution's book of evidence will be ready to be served on the accused when he appears again at the District Court next Tuesday, July 29. Legal aid was granted after defence solicitor Tracy Horan said: 'He is not working; he has no assets.'
