Arrests made over alleged stabbing in Moydow

20 Jul 2016

Gardai investigating the alleged stabbing of a man in Longford two months ago have arrested four people in relation to the incident.

Two men and two women were detained and questioned in relation to the incident which occurred in the Moydow area on May 26.

They were later released without charge.

According to Gardai , a file will now be sent to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) to determine what, if any, charges can be brought.

The arrests were made following the ongoing investigation into claims that a man had been stabbed in a car after accepting a lift to Longford.
