"Gardaí confirmed this morning that the three males have now been released without charge and a file will be prepared for the Director of Public Prosecutions. Gardaí said investigations are ongoing. Investigating gardaí gathered a large amount of CCTV from the local area. It is understood the man was previously unknown to the individuals he came in conflict with. One line of inquiry is he may have had an earlier interaction with one man inside a licensed premises,"

"It is simply a horrific tragedy, and people spreading the wrong information as fact is causing further trauma," they said. In a statement, a Garda spokesperson said: "Gardaí are appealing to anyone who may have witnessed this incident to contact them. "Any road users or persons with camera footage (including dash-cam) in the Tucker Street area between 2:30am and 3:15am are asked to make this footage available to investigating Gardaí."
