A Garda was knocked out after being punched in the head by a crazed thug as he responded to a row before his colleague was also attacked.
The cop attended an incident on Fitzgibbon Street on Sunday night just before 8pm. The garda had already called for assistance when a man began to attack him, punching him and knocking him out.
His colleagues were quickly on the scene where they managed to restrain the man before a woman hit another officer, cutting his lip. The garda who was knocked out was taken to the Mater Hospital to be treated for concussion.
