A MAN’S eye socket was cracked and put out of place during an early morning altercation in Meelick, it has been claimed in court.
Arising out of the alleged incident, David (23) and Gary (22) Moloney, of Elton Court, Meelick, are accused of assaulting Mark Walsh, causing him harm, at Killavoher, Meelick, on June 28 last.
Inspector Tom Kennedy told Shan- non District Court that Mr Walsh
received serious injuries to his face during a row at 3am.
“From a medical report his eye socket was cracked and put out of place,” he said. He said Mr Walsh’s face was swollen as a result of the incident.
He said he was punched into the face and kicked to the body, whilst on the ground.
Judge Joseph Mangan declined jurisdiction and adjourned the case for preparation of the Book of Evi- dence.
