Gardaí were on patrol at Cashel Avenue, Crumlin, Dublin 12 early on the evening of Friday 31st October 2025 at a public gathering at a bonfire. Fireworks were discharged and missiles were thrown at uniform Gardaí who were forced to withdraw.
An Garda Síochána escalated their capacity, including deployment of Public Order Units, who secured the area and assisted Dublin Fire Brigade to attend safely.
Shortly after 6.30pm, members at the scene became aware of a report of the discharge of a firework into a private residence.
A woman (aged in her 30’s) was initially treated at scene by Dublin Fire Brigade personnel and subsequently conveyed to St James’s hospital for treatment of serious injuries, believed to be non-life-threatening at this time.
