A serious assault took place in Belmayne, Dublin 13, during the early hours of 28 September 2026, leaving one individual in hospital with serious injuries. The incident unfolded in the quiet residential area, where neighbours reported hearing raised voices and a disturbance before emergency services arrived. Gardai have launched a full investigation and are urging anyone who witnessed the altercation or saw suspicious activity in the vicinity to come forward immediately.
Descriptions of the suspects remain vague at this stage, though officers believe the attack may have been targeted. Local residents have described the area as usually peaceful, with many expressing shock at the sudden violence. Detective Inspector Seán Ó Rourke of the Dublin North Division emphasised the urgency of the appeal, stating, *“This was a brutal and unprovoked attack, and we need the public’s help to bring those responsible to justice.”*
Gardai have set up a dedicated incident room at Coolock Garda Station and are appealing for anyone with information—no matter how small—to contact them on 01 666 8000 or the confidential line 1800 666 111. Alternatively, details can be submitted anonymously via the Garda website.
