Two teenage boys arrested over the incident which left Stephen Termini (57) in coma
The arrests, in separate but related operations, bring to three the number of youths detained as part of the inquiry into an assault on Stephen Termini at the corner of Store Street and Talbot Street on July 19th.
Detectives believed from the early stages of the inquiry they had identified at least three suspects, all teenage boys. They believe the boys were on Talbot Street for a long period, in the company of a number of girls, before the attack happened. He has been receiving treatment at Beaumont Hospital, which specialises in the treatment of serious and complex head injuries, and remains in a coma some eight days after the attack.established to assist Mr Termini and his family aimed to raise $10,000 but had generated $120,000 by Thursday morning. Many of the messages left by donors were from Irish people expressing their disgust at the attack and passing on their best wishes.
The incident has led to renewed debate around policing, crime and perceptions of safety in central Dublin. The US embassy in Dublin issued a warning to American citizens, urging them to “exercise good personal security practices” while travelling in Ireland.
