Gardaí arrest fourth person over fatal Rialto stabbing

The fourth person arrested, a male teenager, was taken into Garda custody yesterday evening.

GARDAÍ INVESTIGATING the fatal stabbing of a German man in Rialto have arrested a fourth person in connection with their investigations.

The male teenager was arrested yesterday evening.

The teen is being held under Section 30 of the Offences Against the State Act 1939.

The three people previously arrested in connection with the attack on early Saturday morning – including two other teenagers and a woman in her 40s – were released without charge yesterday.

A second person who was stabbed in the incident, outside the Herberton Apartments on St Anthony’s Road, remains in hospital.

    Criminals are working from our sewers now? Next they’ll be robbing from the financial centre, trapping Dublins Gardai down in the sewer with a series of planned explosions and a guy in a strange mask will be interrupting a GAA match to tell us he has a big bomb and that he’s giving Dublin back to the people. Until we are saved by the Dark Knight. The one they call, ENDA!

    Hey lighten up. This could be a serious thing. What if they were planting a bomb under streets of Dublin where your kids and family walk or drive daily? Well done to the concerned citizen who spotted them and reported it. Pity more of us are not so observent. I think the gardai have a difficult job in todays climate and I for one want them to have sufficient traning and resources to do their job properly to keep our streets safe for everybody citizens and tourists alike. The amount of drug use, drunkeness, attacks on innocent people in this country is absolutely apalling and it HAS to stop NOW. The country will be lawless if these criminals, drunkards, doped up fools are allowed to do whatever their devious brains (i.e the criminals) or drunk or drugged up brains allow them freedom to do. The wanton stealing of road art, peoples property, ancient church property, lead from roofs, copper from vacant or not vacant houses etc etc etc etc has to be stopped and for some we will have to depend on observent citizens to report it……………..like whoever reported the manhole guys. Help the gardai to nail these people. I for one are proud of our guards ……. keep doing a good job lads and Enda and his ilk give them all the help they need and that goes for us too…..report anything suspicious……….it may save trauma or lives.

    Yes, there is, oddly enough. They’re infrastructure, not public spaces, and access must be granted by The Corpo if it is not a Corpo worker.

    I doubt you’d get life without parole if you were caught soon a bit of exploring, but they have to have a rule otherwise there’d be hell to pay of someone wandered down there, had an accident, and put in for an insurance claim against the corpo. This was how it was explained to us when I was a teenager and a few of us were caught hanging around in a flood drain network. They were a handy place for a sneaky smoke and an underage naggin.

    All the reports say that 2 men lowered a ladder into the sewer & climbed down; there was no ladder found when Gardai began & the photographs of the sub aqua unit descending into the manhole show very cramped conditions; so my question is where is this ladder?

    It didn’t vanish & it couldn’t have been taken with them. Certainly an unusual occurrence but if there was an innocent explanation ie photography then surely they’d have come forward by now? As to why the Gardai are so concerned then consider that apart from subversive/criminal motives there is also the possibility that these people might have become trapped. Certainly a story to keep an eye on.
