GARDAÍ ARRESTED A man and located a number of weapons outside a music venue in Dublin city centre in the early hours of yesterday morning after an altercation involving a large group of young men.
The incident occurred at 1am yesterday outside the Lost Lane venue, formerly Lillies Bordello, on Adam Court, where many revellers from the Longitude festival were in attendance.
A large group of young men tried to gain entrance to the venue and there was an altercation outside. Gardaí attended the scene and the crowd quickly dispersed.
A man in his early 20s was arrested and charged in connection with the incident.
Gardaí also said they located and seized “a number of offensive weapons” after the youths left the scene.
African music artists Naira Marley was due to perform at Lost Lane on Saturday night but Dublin Live reports the venue was cleared out by gardaí before he came on stage.
A garda spokesperson said investigations into this incident are ongoing.

Bon Voyage and safe journey to all Irish nurses who will be leaving our shores because of the 20% reduction in starting pay.
This move demonstrates the level of respect our TD’s have for our Nurses.
Soon, there will be a recruitment drive overseas to import cheap nurses. Unfortunately, foreign nurses will be conned into coming here for poor pay and terrible working conditions.
We train the best and import the worst. Remember the Nigerian ‘doctor’ who couldn’t even take a pulse…??.
Once, I was so sick that I couldn’t even get into the car to go to the gp. My wife phoned ‘Southdoc’ who sent an African who was doing a ‘locum’, (€70) He used a lolipop stick, said I had a bad cold & prescribed ‘Benylin for flu’, – an over the counter medication. it got worse, A friend who was a real doctor called, he actually used a stetescope & diagnosed severe pneumonia, prescribed the antibiotic, ‘Klacid’ among several other drugs to ease my suffering.
There needs to be a clampdown on quacks like this, getting away with, possibly…….murder.
Who is in charge….??
Oh yeah….forget it.
The foreign nurses will go to other countries with better conditions, and the ones who are duped to come here will soon cop on and leave. It’s happened before and will happen again
@hector i have to disagree with the tone of your comments. plenty of good “African/Nigerian” doctors about.
would it have been possible you didn’t tell him all or symptoms or as with slot of illness it progressively got worse.
@ Paddy, – A hospital floor cleaner could have diagnosed what was wrong with me, – maybe that’s what this guy was…? – There is such corruption in parts of Africa, that you can buy a degree in anything for a few hundred bucks, – it’s a handy way of getting yourself into any country as long as no-one asks any awkward questions…
Pretty sure that the story you mention wasn’t actually a Nigerian – Eastern European, I think. Shocking how they got through the system but more a fault of the hiring system here, rather than anyone’s race.
wonderful, the goverment want to help banks make a profit while throwing the irish voters out on the roads of ireland while the ministers enjoy 3000e salary every week, oliver cromwell is reincarnated, to hell or connaught with the irish.
Not Connaught enda lives down that way
