19 hours agoArmed gardai attend incident at Blanchardstown Garda Station
Shortly before 4am, an adult male entered Blanchardstown Garda Station threatening members. Gardaí confirmed that they initiated their Operational Command protocol, which saw them appoint an On-Scene Commander and local Garda negotiators from the National Negotiators Unit. A cordon was put in place and all morning commuter traffic was stopped in the area. Gardaí also requested a 'media blackout', which means media outlets and the public are asked to pause any live reporting on events while they attempt to resolve the situation.
