A man has appeared in court charged with assaulting a garda during a Garth Brooks concert.

Gary Doyle, 27, appeared before Dublin’s District Court this morning charged with assaulting a garda causing harm in Croke Park, Dublin on Saturday, September 10. The court heard that the injured party suffered a broken nose during the alleged assault.

Mr Doyle, with an address in Co Down, is accused of a Section 3 assault causing harm against a member of An Garda Siochana at the famous venue. Superstar Brooks, 60, was performing in front of 80,000 adoring fans at the Dublin headquarters of the GAA when the alleged incident occurred.
