A woman whose children were badly burnt in an arson attack last month had to flee her Limerick home yesterday after another attack.

Sheila Murray and her children escaped when a brick was thrown through the front door of their home at 1.15am on Sunday morning. A second brick was also thrown through a car windscreen outside her home.

Gardaí have confirmed they are investigating an incident at the house in the Pineview Gardens area of Moyross.

Two of Ms Murray's eight children - six-year-old Millie and her four-year-old Gavin - are still being treated for extensive burns they suffered in a car blaze at the same address.

It is understood some sort of petrol bomb was thrown at the car while the mother visited friends in a house in the estate.

Two teenagers have been charged in relation to the offence.

Gardaí at Mayorstone Garda Station are appealing for witnesses to the latest attack.
