latest first- Two men jailed for assault causing serious harm in Edenderry Assault causing serious harm · Co. Offaly
On 18 June 2020, a hooded man struck Irish construction worker Keith Dunne, 34, with a Japanese pull saw at JKL Street, Edenderry, Co Offaly, severing part of his ring finger and injuring other fingers on his left hand. Craig Connolly, 30, of Kinnefad, Edenderry, was charged with assaulting Dunne causing serious harm and possessing the saw, while Sean Dillon, 42, of St Brigid's Road, Edenderry, was charged with the same assault acting in common design or aiding and abetting. Both men pleaded not guilty and were found guilty by a jury at Tullamore Circuit Court in May 2022 after a seven-day trial. In December 2022, Connolly was sentenced to eight years in prison including two suspended, and Dillon to seven years with the final four suspended.
