Two separate attacks in Dublin under investigation

Gardai in Dublin are investigating a suspected petrol bomb attack in Tallaght

after a fire broke out in a house in Balrothery at about 4.30am this morning.

A number of people were in the house at the time but they all escaped uninjured and the blaze was contained to a front room in the house.

The gardai are looking for a youth who was spotted running from the area shortly before the fire started.

Meanwhile, a man has been taken to hospital after a stabbing incident in

Ballyfermot last night.

The injured man was discovered in the Raheen Park area at 12.20am and the area has been sealed off for technical examination.
