600 rounds per minute machine gun seized in Garda raid

Gardaí believe they have deprived a feuding gang of a “safehouse” used to store guns and large quantities of drugs.

Officers seized a powerful machine gun — capable of firing 600 rounds a minute — along with more than 3kg of high-purity cocaine in a raid on an apartment in a leafy part of north Dublin.

A 37-year-old man was arrested at the address in Castleknock.
