A young man was fighting for his life with a bleed on his brain last night after he was attacked at a Dublin Luas stop.
The man, 29, is believed to have been on his way home on an e-scooter — when he was approached by up to 10 teenagers at the Georges Dock Luas stop on Sunday night. Sources say he was brutally beaten during an altercation with the gang and that following this, two other youths stole the e-scooter from him.
The attack has been described as being a random and unprovoked and the theft of the scooter may have been a crime of opportunity, rather than the original motive for the attack, sources say. It is understood the man was left with a bleed on the brain and a fractured skull during the shocking incident that occurred just before 9pm.
