Garda patrols on busy Summer days are needed on Dublin's beaches following a mass brawl in north Dublin yesterday according to a local councillor.
The public order unit had to be called on Sunday evening as large crowds gather on Burrow Beach in Sutton. Footage of the incident, which has been making rounds on social media, shows a large crowd of youths exchanging blows on the beach.
Now local Labour councillor Brian McDonagh has called the incident "entirely predictable" following a number of issues with antisocial behaviour on beaches. He's also calling on Fingal County Council to take further action to protect Dublin's beaches.
