34 people were arrested after the crowd set fire to vehicles, looted shops and clashed with riot police.

The unrest began after three children and a teaching assistant were injured in a stabbing attack outside a school. Ireland's police chief blamed what he called a "lunatic hooligan faction, driven by far right ideology".
