Cases
latest first- Man sentenced for violent disorder at Icon nightclub, Limerick Violent disorder (breach of suspended sentence) · Co. Limerick
In the early hours of 28 October 2019, Cillian McCarthy, a 20-year-old man (reports differ, giving 24), was allegedly attacked inside and outside the Icon nightclub on Upper Denmark Street, Limerick City, after the prosecution alleged a dispute over him speaking to two women. Kyle Hayes, a 26-year-old man, Craig Cosgrave, a 24-year-old man, and Jai Chaudri, a 25-year-old man, were charged with violent disorder and assault causing harm. A jury at Limerick Circuit Criminal Court in December 2023 convicted Hayes of two counts of violent disorder and acquitted him of assault, while Cosgrave was acquitted. Hayes received fully suspended sentences in March 2024, and a dangerous driving conviction in July 2024 triggered a Section 99 re-entry, with the Probation Service deeming him suitable for 180 hours of community service in April 2025. In March 2026, Chaudri was convicted of violent disorder, given a fully suspended one-year sentence, and acquitted of assault causing harm.
