A man on disability benefit has been charged with attacking an off-duty garda at the Swedish House Mafia concert in the Phoenix Park, Dublin, on July 7th.

Seán Hulgrain (22), Thornfield Square, Clondalkin, was charged at Dublin District Court yesterday with assault causing harm to Wayne Keown at the concert, which was attended by about 45,000 people.

Judge Bryan Smyth was told that there was no objection to bail. He ordered Mr Hulgrain to appear again on December 12th and remanded him on €500 bail. Legal aid was also granted and bail conditions were set.

It is the second assault case to be brought in connection with violence at the concert.
