Picture emerges of victim of Dublin hostel assault Jamie Kavanagh

Gardai are continuing to quiz a man on suspicion of the murder of a young man at a hostel - as tributes flow for the victim.

The 41-year-old continues to be questioned at Kevin's Street Garda station this afternoon over the killing of Jamie Kavanagh. The victim, 24, was stabbed repeatedly after a row broke out at a property on Harrington Street in south inner city Dublin before 4.45am on Wednesday morning.

Emergency services rushed Mr Kavanagh to St James' Hospital but the popular young man lost his battle for life. The suspect, originally from west Dublin, was also staying at the hostel. He can be held for 24 hours but his detention is continuing due to breaks in that time.
