A CASE of alleged assault on a GAA field in Shannon last year has been brought before Ennis District Court.
Daniel O’Halloran (25) of Liscullane, O’Callaghan’s Mills is charged with assault contrary to section three of the non fatal offences against the person act. The charge relates to an alleged incident at a Clare senior hurling club championship match played at Tullyvarraga, Shannon on May 28 (2011). At Ennis District Court on Wednesday, Inspector John Galvin said that Mr O’Halloran made no reply to charge after caution.
Solicitor for O’Halloran, Patrick Moroney, told the Court that he had written to Shannon Garda Station for full disclosure.
Asked by Judge Patrick Durcan about jurisdiction of the case, Insp Galvin said there “may be a development.”
Judge Durcan remanded Mr O’Halloran on continuing bail to appear again on April 25. Judge Durcan said instructions from the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) are required in order to determine jurisdiction of the case.
