A private CCTV camera was installed on a Council flat after the complex was "indiscriminately" shot at.
The shooting occurred at the Mercer Street Flats just around the corner from St Stephen's Green in April of this year. Thankfully, there were no injuries associated with the shots - but a source said it left residents "traumatised" and children "screaming their heads off".
Dublin City Council confirmed the camera does not belong to them and added that they have been in touch with a tenant about its removal. They said: "Upon inspection one camera was found outside one flat in Mercer House. We have engaged with the tenant to find a solution to removing the camera."
