Detectives will attempt to speak to an Irish J1 student who was left unconscious following an alleged attack in San Diego.
Evan White, a student from Farran Co Cork was found unconscious in an alley in the early hours of Friday morning and was taken to Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla.

A spokesman for San Diego police said it is unknown what caused the injuries since there wasn’t any witnesses and officers had not had the opportunity to speak with Mr White.
