Dublin stabbing: Gardai arrest one

A man in his thirties has been arrested in connection with the death of a woman in Ballymun, Dublin.

It is believed that she was stabbed.

Gardai are investigating the possibility that her death may be linked to another knife attack in which two people were injured.

A garda spokesman said the two attacks happened within an hour of each other between 9pm and 10pm last night.

The body of the woman, who was in her twenties, was discovered in a flat in one of the tower blocks on Sillogue Road.

In the second attack, a man in his thirties and a woman in her forties received stab wounds in another of the tower block flats.
