Gardaí are looking for witnesses to what was described as a 'nasty' assault outside Manor West shopping centre, in which a motorist was struck in the face with a bottle of Bailey's liquor.
The incident occurred around 7pm on Monday, June 16 after the injured party's wife felt sick, forcing him to park his car in a no-parking zone outside the centre.
An elderly man approached him and told him he couldn't park there, but the driver remained in the space.
The elderly man then became agitated and struck him in the face with a bottle of Bailey's which he was carrying, causing a cut on his top lip.
Sgt Lynda Brosnan said while Gardaí are currently examining video footage, they would also appreciate the assistance of anyone who may have witnessed the assault.
She also says it was lucky the bottle didn't break:
