POLICE have appealed to the public for help after Armagh man Gerard – known locally as ‘Loco’ – Crilly was seriously injured in a city centre assault three months ago.
There was a delay in reporting the incident to police due to the extent of the injuries sustained by the 51-year-old city man.

Mr Crilly was assaulted in the car park at Eurospar, at Dobbin Street Lane, on Saturday, August 10. He sustained serious injuries and was admitted to hospital.
