• Buncrana man retracts guilty plea over Letterkenny assaults Assault causing harm · Co. Donegal

  Kevin Grant, a man from Hilltown, Buncrana, Co Donegal, aged 36 according to one report and 37 according to another, is charged with two counts of assault causing harm against two men allegedly on Main Street, Letterkenny, on 23 September 2023. In March 2026 he appeared at Letterkenny District Court, where the Director of Public Prosecutions consented to his being sent forward for trial to Letterkenny Circuit Court, and he was granted bail with conditions. In May 2026 he told Letterkenny Circuit Court that he did not affirm a signed guilty plea entered at the District Court, and Judge John Aylmer adjourned the case to the next Circuit Court session so a book of evidence can be served on him. No sentence has been reported.
