GARDAÍ ARE INVESTIGATING after a man suffered serious head and facial injuries in an alleged assault in Limerick yesterday.
Gardaí suspect the injured man was struck several times about the head with a wheel brace or an iron bar.
The alleged attack occurred at a house in the Southill area of Limerick City around 3pm yesterday.
The motive for the alleged assault was unclear, however gardaí suspect it is linked to a personal dispute between two males.
