"When American visitor Stephen Termini (57) was beaten unconscious in the north inner city last week, it was against a backdrop of rising concern that Dublin city centre had become increasingly violent since the pandemic. From Buffalo, New York, he remains in intensive care in Beaumont Hospital after the attack on the corner of Talbot Street and Store Street in Dublin 1. His blood stains the pavement less than 100m from one of the busiest Garda stations in the country."

Having lived in Dublin in the mid-2010's there were parts that were sketchy, but it seems to have gotten a whole lot worse since the pandemic.
