  • Three men sentenced for affray outside Longford service station Assault · Co. Longford

    An altercation on the forecourt of Gala Service Station, Dublin Road, Longford, around 12.10am on 11 June 2024 left Jim Hannifin, 19, with a 12-inch chest laceration after he was allegedly stabbed by Willie McGinley, 23. McGinley was arrested at the scene and charged with a Section 3 assault, while Denis Hannifin, 23, and Jim Hannifin were charged with violent disorder and affray following cross complaints. After bail hearings at Longford District Court in July and October 2024, the case proceeded to Longford Circuit Court in June 2026, where McGinley pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of affray and the two Hannifin brothers pleaded guilty to violent disorder and affray. All three were directed to make charitable contributions to avoid prison sentences.
