Four men were arrested for public order offences following a disturbance at a halting site off the M1 roundabout at Santry in Dublin today.

Gardaí entered the site off Oscar Traynor Road to seize a vehicle shortly after 10.30am.

A garda spokesman said the owner of the vehicle protested and a dispute arose when a group of people surrounded gardaí and tried to stop them from moving the vehicle.

A number of other garda units were called in as backup and four men were arrested for public order offences and taken to Ballymun and Santry Garda stations
