    Anyone got the inside track? I know there ws a to-do at the Kilbarry halting slum but that was at about 6.30 am but the action was more like 9 am. Sounded like at least 2 or 3 emergency vehicles together or quick succesion.

    Looks like Gardai are taking that business at Kilbarry seriously, the place closed off and fillled with cops looking for weapons this afternoon. The whole place should be torched and start again, its a hell-hole to be near or in I'd imagine.

    heard about this alright, apparently it started in near the forum, some stupid scuff which lead to 3 cops cars, a paddy wagon and 2 unmarked showing up. Some of the lads did a legger, and the argument continued at the halting site..

    I saw that first argument. When I arrived, it was three girls screaming at each other but they backed of when the cops told them to get lost or be arrested. The unmarked car soon had a car pulled over near the same spot, and were chatting to a young lad who got out of the car - but I continued on and spotted the van / car down towards the brewery. Didn't see any arrests tho.
