A man has made a cautioned statement to Gardaí over an alleged incident at a Tipperary GAA juvenile hurling blitz where a nine-year-old boy was allegedly grabbed by the throat during a pitch invasion.
The man, who is understood to be from the Tipperary area, voluntarily presented himself at Thurles Garda station.
No arrest was made but Gardaí have confirmed a full investigation into the incident last Saturday is underway.
According to reports, families comforted the boy as he fought back tears after being grabbed by the throat by a man who stormed onto the pitch at a lunchtime game on Saturday.
The incident has ignited a Garda investigation and reviews by both the Munster GAA Council and Tipperary GAA County Board.
