Photograph: Tom HonanA 40-year-old man who died after being stabbed was still conscious when gardaí arrived at the scene and was able to point out his alleged attacker, a murder trial has heard.
Garda Colm McMenamin told Michael Delaney SC, prosecuting, that he was travelling with Garda Jenny Hyland on the Hebron Road at about 12.30pm where he witnessed a “hysterical lady” on the side of the road trying to get the attention of the patrol van, which pulled in. Garda McMenamin asked John Cash what had happened and was told: “I’m after being stabbed by Andy Cash”.
Garda McMenamin said that after he arrested Andy Cash, the accused was still abusive towards his brother-in-law, “roaring and shouting that he had it coming”. “Whether that was the case is neither here nor there - this goes to Andrew Cash’s state of mind and to the question of motive,” Mr Delaney told the jury.
