Gardaí have appealed for witnesses following the discovery of an injured man in south Dublin on Saturday night.

The man, who is in his 30s, was discovered by a passerby on Firhouse Road at 8.15pm. He was removed to Tallaght Hospital, where he is said to be in a serious condition.

At this stage of the investigation, gardaí believe the man’s injuries were the result of an accident, possibly a fall.
