Gardai rush to scene of mass brawl on Dublin beach

Gardai have appealed for witnesses following a mass brawl on a beach in Dublin.

The incident happened on Burrow Beach in Sutton on Sunday evening. Officers from the Raheny District and the Public Order Unit stayed at the scene until large crowds that had gathered there for much of the day had dispersed safely.

Footage of the incident, which has been making rounds on social media, shows a large crowd of youths exchanging blows on the beach. A garda spokesman confirmed officers responded to a public order incident on the beach.
