I live nearby and was wondering what had happened. I (morbidly) assumed the Maxol had been robbed as it had it's foyet lights and petrol price sign off.

When I was passing there was an ambulance in the Maxol and 5 or 6 Gardai cars about.

I hope those who did it are caught and go to prison for a long long time.

Really hope he pulls through. Terrible thing to happen :-(

Times like this I wish Ireland had the death penalty. Scum who do things like this don't deserve to live in a normal society.

But being Ireland the perpetrator will play the sob story of a broken home and emotional problems, get a few years in prison, serve a few days and be back out on the streets

Heroin is the culprit more than likely.
Its unreal how bad its gotten in the county, you can be sure its one of the main reasons there are so many robberies, burglaries, muggings and violent behaviour.

there needs to be action, the garda arrest the junkies and let them back out on the street to wait for a court date and re-offend.

"A lovely man has just been stabbed at my petrol station at park road .This is not news ,what do we have to do to protect ourselfs from scum .This was all for a few measly hundred he saved my staff from being hurt these scum bags were off their heads on what ever , if anyone hear anything relating to this please contact the Garda please share this Thank you"

deadybai

jesus christ i hope he pulls through. I remember in school we were asked 'who thinks the death penalty should be brought into Ireland' and I was the only one in my class who put up my hand. everyone turned around at me in disgust. I still stand by that decision. Fcuking c/nts should be shot in the head and thrown into the fire. horrible news.

Dublin, 1980, community protests, roadblocks and basically pressure put on the junkies to get out.
If they didnt get out, they were man handled.

Just a wee reminder not to mention any names of the injured party or suspects in this case until its confirmed by the media and you can link us to it. Thanks!

Better to get the source out, the junkies are a side effect.

it was the junkies that were bringing in the gear, evict the junkies and the gear went with them.
Im not saying all junkies are bad, heroin is.. and it just so happens that there are junkies robbing to support habits.

I dont trust heroin..

Passed by earlier on the way home, one ambulance and several Garda cars present with lights flashing. Was clear something bad had happened. Hope the person involved makes a full recovery and those responsible get what they deserve.

Sounds like he thought they were going to stab her so stepped in.

"An address at Canada House, Canada Street, Waterford was searched after the robbery and suspects were arrested."

This is less than 50m away from the place!

What a sickening and disgusting incident.Waterford is such a nice city but look at all the robberies that have been happening these past few months which has culminated in an innocent man getting stabbed.Then again considering the way heroin has taken a hold in Cork and Limerick cities it was only a matter of time before the problem spread.Of course you will have the liberal do gooders that will defend these people and lecture us about the rights of the criminal and the drug addict but f them i say.This heroin scourge is changing our cities for the worse and we need the powers that be to tackle this problem head on.

anyone know the lad is doing?

Come on now, we don't know what happened, or how any of us would react in that sort of situation.

I'd never put my life in danger for the contents of some petrol station owner's till, but if I was in there and some skobe was about to hurt the girl behind the counter with a knife, I might not see any other option than to try and stop him.

Bad things happen when good people stand by and do nothing,

Its obviously not the outcome the guy wanted (getting stabbed) but you don't know the situation at the time and clearly he thought the staff was in alot of danger

mooseknunkle

I dont think anybody would know what to do when in that situation we might think its like a movie and we will become a hero or something but the reality is that there is some scum out there and they wouldn't think twice about stabbing you and unfortunately this is what happened yesterday.Out of interest does anybody know why these scumbags are being held in New Ross and Tramore Garda stations and not the Waterford city one?

From what i heard he was at the door when they where running out and maybe the robber thought he was blocking them in and sliced his arm or hand. He probably couldnt see they had a knife from behind the stand in the middle and in a split second did actually did try and block them in.

Shop is small enough. If there was fellas running down each lane to get out and you where at the exit its not gonna end well.

Also if anyone could PM me with who they arrested id be interested.

pity he didnt fill a few cups of boiling water off the boiler at the back of the shop and give their miserable faces a quick rinse with it.....
