Security Guard Hospitalised Following Assault In Clonmel, Co. Tipperary.

Gardaí are investigating after security workers were assaulted and a number of vehicles were extensive damaged by fire overnight, at a site in the area of Heywood Road, on the edge of Clonmel town, South Co. Tipperary.

The area was the subject of plans by the Department of Integration and the OPW to install 82 modular homes for refugees, latter fleeing the war in Ukraine.

The site was part of a parcel of land owned by the HSE and is in the process currently of being transferred to the Office of Public Works OPW.
We understand that it is likely to be late this year before the pre-built homes will start to arrive on the property and possibly early next year before same are ready for occupation.

According to Gardaí, the incident is understood to have happened at around 11:40pm last night, when security personnel, contracted to work at the site, were assaulted by a number of individuals.

One of the security personnel was later hospitalised, while a number of vehicles were extensively damaged.

Gardaí have conducted a technical examination of the scene and are appealing for any witnesses to the incident, including persons with mobile phone or dash cam footage to get in touch with them.

The OPW have confirmed that it is fully aware of this incident and that it has engaged with the contractor, Sisk Ltd, in relation to further site security and also with An Garda Síochána regarding, what it refers to as, public order issues arising at the site.

No arrests have yet been made.
