Gardaí say that when the man was found by the owner of the house, he then proceeded to assault her using a metal travel mug.

The man is then alleged to have fled the scene when disturbed by another person in the house.

The woman, aged in her 50s, received injuries to her head.

No property was taken from the house.

A man was later arrested and taken to Bridewell Garda Station where he was detained under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act, 1984.

He has since been charged in connection with the incident and will appear before Cork District Court tomorrow morning.
