TWO MEN REMAIN in hospital, one of whom is under arrest, after an attack at a Spar shop on James’s Street in Dublin on Saturday night.
A shop worker, a man in his 30s, is said to be seriously ill in hospital after he was stabbed with syringe during an altercation with a man who was attempting to rob the contents of the shop shortly before 10pm on Saturday.
