Gardai are investigating after concrete blocks were thrown at the windows of a school in Tallaght.

The two incidents happened at St Maelruain's Junior School in Tallaght on Old Bawn Avenue on Tuesday, January 18 and Thursday, January 20.

On January 18, a concrete slab was removed from the roof and thrown at the windows of the internal courtyard, resulting in damage to the window frames.

A garda spokesman told Dublin Live: “Gardaí are investigating an incident of criminal damage to a property in Tallaght, Co. Dublin between the 18th and the 19th of January 2022."

"No arrests have been made, investigations are ongoing."
