This was the shocking scene in Temple Bar as a man was set upon by a gang with a flurry of punches and kicks while he was on the ground.
The scene took place at the rear of the newly-developed €100 million Central Plaza, near the corner of Cope Street and Fownes Street in the city centre, just before 1am in the early hours of Monday morning. The security camera footage submitted to Dublin Live shows a man with another man in a headlock.
The aggressor throws punches while a woman tries to pull the victim to the ground. Once he is grounded, a number of other people come across to get come cheap kicks in before they are ushered away by the first attacker.
