Gardaí at Nenagh Garda Station are today appealing for witnesses, following a serious incident involving a series of assaults at Tullahedy, south west of Nenagh town, in North Co. Tipperary yesterday.
Armed Gardaí and Emergency Services personnel attended at the scene, shortly after midday yesterday, Friday October 18th, where we understand that four individuals sustained non-life threatening injuries; two of whom were reportedly hospitalised with suspected stab wounds.
All parties involved had hastily removed themselves from the scene, prior to the arrival of Gardaí. However, Gardaí confirm that four of the individuals involved subsequently sought medical treatment, of their own accord, for their injuries. Further enquiries are ongoing.
