Gardaí are tonight investigating a suspected serious sexual assault on a woman in Kilmallock in Co Limerick.
The alleged assault is understood to have occurred earlier this week at a house in Downings Cross when four men broke in.
Three of them are alleged to have attacked her. The woman was first treated at St John's Hospital in Limerick on Tuesday and then later treated for her injuries in Cork.
Garda forensic teams have examined the scene where the incident is alleged to have occurred.
