  • Father and son acquitted of assault and criminal damage in Donegal Assault; criminal damage; producing an article capable of inflicting serious injury · Co. Donegal

    On 22 May 2019, at Dundrain, Burnfoot, Co Donegal, three young men, Martin Harkin, 18, Sean Fisher and Leon McDaid, alleged that father and son Shaun Arbuckle, 46, and Shane Arbuckle, 27, attacked them with hurleys and damaged their Volkswagen Jetta. The men were charged with assault, criminal damage and producing an article capable of inflicting serious injury. After a five-day trial at Letterkenny Circuit Court, a jury returned not guilty verdicts on all counts for both men. At least two of the alleged victims have since started personal injury claims against the Arbuckles for up to €60,000.
