Ireland Two men charged after Tipperary Town search linked to December violent disorder
Gardaí searched a residence in the Rosanna Road area of Tipperary Town on Wednesday 29 January 2025 as part of an investigation into a violent disorder incident on 16 December 2024. Two men, one in his late teens and one in his forties, were arrested and detained at a Garda station in County Tipperary, and both have since been charged in connection with the investigation. The search seized drug paraphernalia, about €1,000 worth of cannabis herb and several weapons. The latest development is a scheduled District Court appearance, with sources disagreeing on whether it was Nenagh District Court later on 29 January 2025 or Ennis District Court on Thursday 30 January 2025.
