Witness appeal after Ennis assault

ENNIS Gardaí are appealing for witnesses as they continue to investigate an assault on a 20 year-old man in the town centre on the Thursday before Christmas (December 22). 

The man was seriously injured in the assault which took place on Abbey Street at around 2.50am. Gardaí say the man was with a group of friends when he was approached and punched in the head by another male. A number of witnesses have come forward and Gardaí have thanked them for their cooperation, but say the street was very busy at the time and appealed to anyone else who may have witnessed this assault to come forward. They are also appealing to anyone who may have camera footage to contact Ennis Garda Station on 065-6848100.
