Aidan McGinley was walking over the Craigavon Bridge towards Carlisle Road at about 1130 BST when he was confronted by two men and knocked to the ground. Aidan said one man punched him to the ground, then "booted" him twice. Mrs McGinley said her son was "shaking and traumatised" when he returned home. The white jacket he was wearing during the attack was covered in blood from being punched in the nose Police have described the attack as "unprovoked". One of the attackers was wearing a black, hooded jacket and black training bottoms. Police have appealed for any witnesses to contact them. I just wish this boy all the best in the future and I hope he gets over it. This should not be happening, How much harm could a boy cause? Just days after hosting the All Ireland Feile this happens, Could you imagine if that was a visitor from another county in Ireland, What an impression they would get Orlaith (Derry) - Posts: 4282 - 07/07/2010 16:03:00 699537 Link 0 0 |
