It is understood Mr Gibbons was attacked following an incident on a bus earlier with a group of young men. One line of investigation is that he had asked the group to stop making noise as they all travelled to Kildare town on the same bus.
Mr Gibbons was living at Connagh Green in Kildare town, but was originally from West Dublin.
