Gardaí are reviewing CCTV footage in an effort to identify the culprits of an unprovoked assault in the city centre on Sunday.
The incident happened close to Woodquay Stores around 1.30 last Sunday morning when a young man was attacked.
A 23-year-old man was assaulted by a group of young people believed to be in their late teens in Woodquay.
The group included males and females.
The victim, Ronan Greaney, who works in the family business, Dough Bros in the city, sustained serious injuries to his face and remains at University Hospital Galway to undergo treatment.
Ronan’s brother Eugene says the assault was completely unexpected and explains that his brother now has to undergo serious hospital treatment.
It follows another serious incident in the Woodquay area two months ago, where a man was stabbed in an unprovoked assault.
Gardaí are appealing to anyone who may have noticed anything suspicious in the Woodquay area in the early hours of last Sunday morning to contact them at Millstreet Garda Station at 091 53 8000.
