*Quin. 

A MAN in his thirties has been hospitalised following a stabbing in Quin.

In what is the second stabbing to occur in Co Clare within the space of five days, a man has been hospitalised with non-life-threatening injuries following an assault in Quin on Thursday evening.

The Clare Echo understands the incident involving two Irish nationals occurred shortly before 8pm on Thursday evening in the new housing estate, Radharc an tSruthain in the village of Quin.

One man in his thirties was brought to hospital for treatment of injuries which were not believed to be life-threatening. His injuries were sustained in the arm and the leg.

Another male in his forties was arrested at the scene and detained at a Garda station in Clare under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act, 1984. He has since been charged and appeared before Nenagh District Court on Friday morning,

“As this matter has now appeared before the court, An Garda Síochána is not in a position to comment further at this time,” a spokesperson for An Garda Síochána told The Clare Echo.
