    A serious assault allegedly took place in Castlebar, Co Mayo in August 2025. Four men, including former Mayo senior footballer Davitt Neary, 23, Paul Dowding, 24, Rhys Neary, 18, and Oran Groarke, 23, were arrested and charged. At Castlebar District Court in July 2026, charges against Neary, Dowding and Rhys Neary were upgraded from Section 3 to Section 4 of the Non-Fatal Offences Against the Person Act 1997, while Groarke's charge of violent disorder remained unchanged. All four were remanded on continuing bail to 15 July for service of the book of evidence.
