Four males, including two young men, were injured and are being treated in hospital in Limerick after they sustained multiple stab or slash wounds during a violent incident in Nenagh, Co Tipperary.

The attack occurred in the north Tipperary town around midday on Friday.

Two of the males arrived at an injury unit at Nenagh Hospital with stab wounds to their head and arms.

These two men were later transferred by ambulance to the Emergency Department at University Hospital Limerick.

These two men are understood to have sustained serious injuries with at least one of the males suffering a stab or slash wound to his head.

Gardaí at Nenagh said four men sought treatment for injuries following a public order incident in Nenagh on Friday afternoon.

“All parties involved had left the scene prior to the arrival of Gardaí.

“Four individuals subsequently sought medical treatment of their own accord for non-life threatening injuries.

“Enquiries are ongoing. No further information is available.”

It is understood the incident is linked to a violent dispute between a number of parties local to the area.
