The media up to this point has one reported one head injury that resulted from the gardai abuse on Saturday evening. We know that the gardai were out there attacking protestors with their batons. The first aid team and fellow helpful protestors clean up and bandage many injuries on Saturday evening. These injuries ranged from broken arms to head injuries.
