RESIDENTS FORCED TO LEAVE BALLYBANE HOME FOLLOWING RIOT

Date Published: 05-Feb-2010

Residents at an estate in Ballybane were forced to evacuate their home last evening after a row broke out at a neighbours house.

Gardaí were called to the Fána Glas estate last night following reports of a large crowd gathered outside the house.

Gardaí patrolled the area for several hours, but confirmed no arrests were made.

It's claimed two families were involved in the dispute, which frightened many neighbours living in the locality.

Gardaí say they will continue to patrol the area as required over the weekend.
