Galway Daily courts Two more people charged with involvement in violent brawl

Two more people have been charged and are due to appear before court in connection with a massive brawl which saw multiple people injured on the Headford Road.

Gardaí last night charged two men aged 19 and 24 in connection with the public order and endangerment incident which occurred last Sunday evening outside Galway Shopping Centre.

The two men were arrested  following a series of search and arrest operations in the Galway area this week, and are due to appear before Galway District Court at 10:30am this morning.

The violent brawl in the car park outside Galway Shopping Centre on the Headford Road saw four people taken to hospital, two of whom were injured after a car was driven at them.

A total of nine people have been arrested to date as part of this investigation, eight of which have been charged by Gardaí to appear before the courts.

Five people were brought before Galway District Court on charges of violent disorder yesterday in connection with this incident.

Investigations remain ongoing and Gardaí in Galway continue to appeal to anyone who may have witnessed the incident to come forward.

They are particularly appealing to those who were in the College Road and Headford Road areas in Galway between 5:45pm and 6:45pm on Sunday evening and observed any violent behaviour, to contact them.

Additionally, individuals with camera footage, including dash cam recordings, from the area are urged to provide this material to the Gardaí.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Galway Garda Station at 091 538 000, the Garda Confidential Line at 1800 666 111, or any Garda station.
