An asylum seeker at the Newtownmountkennedy camp was hospitalised on Tuesday after he allegedly threw a rock at a member of security. The Daily Mail reports that around 35 asylum seekers had gathered together at the camp in an apparent bid to overthrow security due to ‘bad blood’ that has developed since 112 men arrived over the past few weeks. A source said: ‘Words were exchanged between these two men and it became violent. One of them didn’t like being told what to do and whipped a rock at the security man’s head. He got a gash to the head and then it all kicked off.’ ‘One of the asylum seekers then got a belt in the mouth and goes down. There was a time there where security thought they were going to be overwhelmed by the men and the gardaí were called and things managed to calm down. The asylum seeker’s injuries weren’t much but he did require medical attention so an ambulance was brought for him. The security man was taken away in a private car.’ 🔗extra.ie🔗x.com 👉🏻join Late Stage Ireland
