On 19 November 2023, Stephen Byrnes, 33, stabbed Damien Fitzpatrick in the back and abdomen during an argument over how to use cocaine at Byrnes' home on Gerald Griffin Street, Limerick City. Byrnes was charged with assault causing harm and production of a knife, and denied both counts. A jury at Limerick Circuit Criminal Court found him guilty of both offences, rejecting his self-defence claim. In December 2025, Judge Colin Daly sentenced Byrnes to five years for the assault with the final 12 months suspended, and a concurrent three-year sentence for the knife charge.
