An aggressive teenager launched a heavy water bottle at a man during a confrontation in Dublin.
Arturo and his boyfriend, Francesco, were in Dublin city centre waiting for a bus on Aston Quay on Tuesday night when they were taunted by a group of teenagers. Arturo, 36, told Dublin Live: "One of the boys threw a can at me that went over my head. I threw the can back because he hit another person."
Things took a dangerous turn when the teenage boy went into a shop and came out with a large, fully-filled water bottle. Arturo said: "He started waving it at us and yelled at us to leave. The other boys joined him saying they didn't want us there."
