Two due in court over fatal Christmas Eve assault

Two men are due in court this morning as part of an investigation into the death of Tristan Sherry on Christmas Eve.

The pair are charged in connection with a fatal assault that occurred at Browne’s Steakhouse in Blanchardstown, Dublin.

A third man, Michael Andrecut, 22, from Sheephill Avenue in Dublin 15, has been charged with Mr Sherry’s murder.

He was brought before a special court sitting last Saturday and remanded in custody.

Meanwhile, Jason Hennessy Snr, aged 48, who was shot at the restaurant, died in hospital yesterday.

A murder investigation is now under way into Mr Hennessy’s death.
