Amid an increase in street violence in Ireland, the U.S. embassy in Dublin has issued a security awareness alert telling Americans to “keep a low profile” and be aware of their environment.
It comes after a man from Buffalo, New York was attacked last week. Stephen Termini, 57, is now in a coma and is at risk of losing his eye after he was beaten by some teenagers near Store Street Garda Station, in central Dublin, according to reports.
