Rioting in Dublin after 3 kids are stabbed in street, 34 held

Ireland’s PM Leo Varadkar on Friday condemned anti-immigrant protesters who rampaged through central Dublin after three young children were stabbed, saying the rioters simply wanted to cause chaos, not protect the country’s way of life. Police arrested 34 people overnight after up to 500 people looted shops, set fire to vehicles and threw rocks at crowd control officers equipped with helmets and shields. The violence began after rumours circulated that a foreign national was responsible for the attack outside a Dublin school on Thursday afternoon.
