A tragic incident occurred in Dublin, Ireland, resulting in the death of a 17-year-old teenager from Ukraine. Authorities have detained another young man of foreign nationality, who is considered the main suspect.
Additionally, another 17-year-old boy from Ukraine and a woman, likely an employee of the establishment where the tragedy occurred, were injured, reports The Irish Times.
The attack took place on October 15 after 11 AM in one of Dublin's emergency accommodation complexes, designated for individuals seeking international protection. Journalists claim that access to the complex was restricted to residents only.
Police confirmed that they found a seriously injured teenager at the scene, who, despite the efforts of medical personnel, later died.
"I returned home and found chaos. People were running everywhere, some were covered in blood. Security was asking them if they were injured. The first thing I saw was an emergency response unit (police - ed.) rushing into apartments, followed by total chaos.
One woman, who appeared to be a social worker, had blood on her hand. She didn't realize she was injured until she washed her hands," said a resident of the Grattan Wood complex.
According to unnamed sources from The Irish Times, the teenager sustained multiple injuries to the head, arms, and upper body. Authorities believe the attacker used a knife or blade for the assault.
As a result of the incident, another 17-year-old teenager was also injured. He was taken to the hospital with a non-life-threatening cut.
