One-punch attack came after strangers interfered in 'private matter', lawyer says

ABC  

Two men have been charged over a one-punch attack in Brisbane that left a 37-year-old man in a critical condition in hospital on Tuesday night. Mr Collins' duty lawyer Helen Shilton told the court the incident was sparked by a "private matter happening within his house". In the street, police allege Mr Hoodless punched Mr Finemore, who was taken to the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital in a critical condition. In opposing Mr Collins' request for bail, police prosecutor Sergeant Tara Williams said it "was an inappropriate response to the situation". The magistrate said he was satisfied any risk of future offending could be mitigated and granted Mr Collins bail subject to conditions, including that he report to police twice a week.
