Gardaí probe arson angle to bus blaze

GARDAÍ are investigating a possible arson attack which damaged at least 12 buses owned by a private operator, causing potential losses of millions of euro.

Five units of the Dublin City Fire Brigade had to battle the fires at the depot in the Naas Road in Rathcoole, which gutted at least 10 buses and damaged as many as 15.

The vehicles are owned by private coach tour operator Dualway, which runs bus tours for tourists around the city, as well as some local bus services and other coach services.
