Gardai have searched six residences and seized a number of electronic devices from people in the Cherry Orchard area - as the probe into the scenes we saw earlier this week continues.
A video of the incident went viral on social media after it happened on Monday evening - which saw a Garda car rammed after responding to reports of dangerous driving in the area.
The offending vehicles involved were later burned out on a green area beside a creche and Dublin City Council removed the metal car shells on Tuesday morning.
