GARDAÍ ARE APPEALING for witnesses following the arrest of two men in relation to a burglary and assault in Clonmel, Co Tipperary, today.
At around 5.30am, two men entered a house at Westgate Court, Irishtown, Clonmel, and stole a number of items.
The occupant of the house, a man in his 30s, was woken up during the burglary and chased one of the suspects down the road where he was then assaulted. He is currently in South Tipperary General Hospital with what are believed to be non-life-threatening injuries.
Gardaí from Clonmel carried out a patrol of the Irishtown area and arrested a man, aged in his 20s. Whilst carrying out further enquiries gardaí discovered a man, aged in 30s, who was trying to dump some of the stolen property into a nearby river.
Both men are currently being detained at Clonmel Garda Station under section four of the Criminal Justice Act 1984. Three scenes are currently being examined by the Divisional Scenes of Crime team.
Gardaí are appealing for anyone who may have witnessed any of these incidents in the Irishtown area to contact them.
They are also appealing for any road user who was in the area, particularly those with camera footage, between 5.30am and 6.15am, to contact Clonmel Garda Station at 052 617 7640, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111 or any garda station.

But luckily, tutorials can still go ahead, because TAs are dispensable, and over-crowded, un-ventilated tutorial rooms give plenty of room for social distancing. Paddy Prendergast is a virus to Trinity, never mind Covid-19!
@Joe Vlogs: exactly my thoughts .. and as for labs even with protective clothing, you’re still around however many other students that are carrying out the experiment with you.. doesn’t really leave much meaning for “keeping distance from each other” .. I don’t think this was thought thoroughly.
@Joe Vlogs: i’d have some respect for U if U put your real name to the comment
@brian oconnell: I am devastated you don’t respect me. I used to use my genuine name, but I got tired of being stopped on the street to be asked for autographs from the likes of Ross O’Carroll-Kelly, so I used this instead. I didn’t think the validity of my points were dependent on my name and avatar.
We need to be proactive rather than constantly reactive. Anybody capable of working from home should be sent home asap.
@The Risen: most jobs that require you to sit behind a computer for 9 hours straight, so.
Shh about to hit the fan. If anyone there is exposed already, they will be up and about in town. People need to get the right information so they can self isolate.
Book of Kells is infected.
@zachary vvm: Americanos won’t be happy they can’t see the book of Kelly
have your say
