A man who was being questioned in connection with a fatal stabbing of Eddie Gallagher (27) in Cork last Sunday was released without charge this morning. A file is being prepared for the Director of Public Prosecutions.
Eddie Gallagher (27), from Ardcullen in Hollyhill on Cork’s northside, was fatally stabbed during a row on Friar’s Walk on the city’s southside at about 6.30am on Sunday. He was taken by ambulance to Cork University Hospital where he died at 8am.
Last night, another man was charged at a special court sitting with assault causing harm to Mr Gallagher. He was released on bail and will appear in court again later this month.
