Man stabbed in city centre A MAN was recovering today after being stabbed four times on Patrick Street in the early hours of this morning.

By ANN MURPHY

He was involved in an altercation with another man at the junction of Patrick Street and Winthrop Street, at around 1.30am. The victim, who is in his 20s, was stabbed by the other man and was rushed to Cork University Hospital. Gardaí said today that his injuries were not life threatening.

The scene on the city’s main thoroughfare was sealed off until around 8am, and a forensics examination was carried out. However, the injured man has not yet made a complaint to gardaí. A garda source said this morning that gardaí are following a “certain line of enquiry.”

PARENTS have the primary responsibility to ensure their children do not become bullies, a seminar on cyber bullying heard last night. An information evening in City Hall, hosted by cloud computing company Trend Micro to encourage safe internet use, heard that the Government will never be able to make the internet safe. Anthony O’Mara, a non-executive director of Trend Micro, which has been leading a campaign for safer internet usage, said: “Parents have the responsibility to make sure their kids don’t become bullies. Whether you are on the receiving end or giving end, it is up to parents to protect their children and to put them out into society in a way that allows everyone to co-exist easily.”

Mr O’Mara said the idea of a safer internet was just as complex as the idea of creating a safer society. He said young people do not have the same sense of privacy that the previous generation was brought up with. “We have a generation now who want to have a million friends. “People forget that once something is said, it’s out there forever. And you don’t have to work very hard to find it. Young people are not really tuned into that, or maybe they just don’t care.” ● See page six for more.
