Gardaí: Parts Of Dublin Left In Fear After Another Night Of Trouble In City Centre
Riot police dispersed the large crowds who'd gathered in the Temple Bar, Stephen's Green and South William Street areas
19 people, including two under 18s, were arrested for public order offences after glass bottles were thrown at officers and a bin was set on fire.
Two Gardaí were injured and a patrol vehicle was damaged, while a member of the public was assaulted and taken to hospital.
Assistant Commissioner Ann Marie Cagney says most people are doing their bit to behave responsibly:
"Unfortunately yesterday evening, and again the evening before, we had a cohort of individuals who just won't accept that there are, respect and laws to be abided to. So what they have done is they've taken it into their own hands, to try to cause trouble for our communities. And again, this is unacceptable behaviour. We've had a number of misses thrown at Gardaí. We've had parts of our community who are left in fear, and this will not be tolerated."
