Gardai have vowed to tackle street-level drug dealers operating in broad daylight while also fighting back against assaults, thefts and anti-social behaviour in the capital.
The Irish Mirror spent a day with officers from Pearse Street who patrol the busiest areas of Dublin city centre ensuring the streets are safe under Operation Citizen.
The initiative, which was set up by the former Assistant Commissioner Anne Marie Cagney in 2021, now has 28 gardai and four sergeants working across four units.
