On the afternoon of April 9, 2020, a feud between two groups in Arden View, Tullamore, erupted into violent disorder after the window of Thomas Power's car was smashed. A large group gathered and various weapons including sticks, a bar, a golf club, a hurley and a shovel were used; a juvenile, now 16, struck Mark Power, 41, on the head with a shovel, causing skull fractures, bleeding on the brain and a fractured nose. Seven people were convicted of violent disorder and assault at Tullamore Circuit Court, with Mark Power and James McCarthy, 50, each receiving a two-and-a-half year suspended jail sentence. In December 2021, John McCarthy, 22, James Ward, 21, and Sean Power, 19 made €1,500 payments to policing projects, and Michael Sweeney, 19, was ordered to pay €1,500 to a men's shed project, with finalisation of sentencing adjourned.
