Tugadh fear chuig an ospidéal tar éis pléascadh ceimiceach a tharla taobh amuigh de mhonarcha cógaisíochta i gCathair na Mart maidin Dé Céadaoin seo chaite.
D’fhreastail na seirbhísí éigeandála ar an láthair tar éis don phléasc a tharla lasmuigh de mhonarcha Abbvie, ar imeall Chathair na Mart tar éis 8 am maidin inniu, 28 Lúnasa.
Cuireadh cóir leighis ar an bhfear a gortaíodh ag an láthair sular tugadh go dtí an t-ospidéal é agus ní chreidtear go bhfuil a ghortuithe tromchúiseach.
Aslonnaíodh fostaithe ón monarcha as an bhfoirgneamh mar réamhchúram, ach tá siad tar éis filleadh ar an obair ó shin.
Rinneadh teagmháil le Abbvie le haghaidh trácht.
