"Myself and two friends were just outside Abrakebabra in Sligo when the two guys jumped me from behind. I got a several digs and my friend got one or two. There is no truth that I lost a tooth or had my nose broke. I'm 100%, all I have is a small cut on my nose that’s all."

Kian told then of his shock when he realised that he knew his two attackers, who were in school with him. "I went to school with the two guys that jumped me. They were classmates. It’s very disappointing because it was my very first night out in Sligo since Christmas and this happened. I didn't get a chance to hit back"

"The staff in Abrakebabra saw what was happening and they called the police. But, by the time the police got there the two lads had run away. So the police took us to the hospital but as I said all I had was a small cut on my nose so they didn’t even have to give me a check up. As I said it was just very disappointing."
