At around five to six this morning, a 24 year old man was found lying on the road at Parnell Road and Clogher Road in Dublin 12. He was taken to St James Hospital in the city with serious head injuries.

A Garda technical team has examined the scene.
Officers are appealing for information in relation to the incident and to drivers who may have dash cams on their vehicles to contact Sundrive Rd Garda Station, the Garda Confidential Line, or any Garda Station.
