The three-year old girl who was allegedly assaulted last Saturday in Dublin has passed away.

Gardaí and emergency services were called to a house in Shankill at around 4.15pm on February 10.

The girl was taken to Our Lady's Children's Hospital in Crumlin in a critical condition and was put on life support.

She passed away yesterday when the machine was switched off.

A woman in her 40s was charged with assault at Bray District Court on Sunday.
