Three people arrested after garda shot during planned search of house

Three people have been arrested after a garda and a civilian were shot during a planned search of a house in Dublin.

The garda was a member of the Emergency Response Unit (ERU) and was shot in the arm during the drug-related operation in Ballymun early yesterday morning.

His injuries are not life-threatening, nor are the civilian’s, who was shot in the shoulder and is understood to have been inside the property that gardaí were trying to gain access to.
