Last night's riots brought public transport to a stop.
Following the
riots in Dublin city centre last night, which saw a Luas tram and a bus set ablaze, public transport systems will be significant disrupted today.
Footage of escalating tensions began to circulate on social media last night following the attack outside a Dublin primary school, with scenes of protesters gathering around the Parnell Square/O'Connell Street area stopping the passage of public transport and Garda vehicles.
