Last night, a man in his 50s, believed to be an army chaplain, was seriously injured after being stabbed multiple times at Renmore Barracks in Galway. The incident led to the arrest of a teenage boy, who was restrained by members of the Defence Forces before being taken into custody by gardaí.
The wounded chaplain was rushed to University Hospital Galway for treatment, where he is currently awaiting surgery. Fortunately, his injuries are serious but not life-threatening.
The Defence Forces confirmed that shots were fired during the incident as a measure of force protection after a member was assaulted by a civilian. The scene at the barracks has been sealed off for investigation by the Garda Divisional Scenes of Crime Unit.
While investigations are ongoing, Mass at Renmore has been canceled as a result of the violent attack. The public has shown support for the injured chaplain through prayers and well-wishes on social media.
Stay tuned for updates as more details emerge regarding this unsettling event.
