Gardai raided a north Dublin house this evening as they continued their crackdown on a notorious organised crime group known as the Gucci Gang.
The crime group is led by a well-known young Finglas man known as ‘Mr Flashy’ due to his interest in luxury clothes and watches.
The group’s leader is linked to the Kinahan Organised Crime Group and is involved in a violent feud of his own in the general Finglas area.
Locals reported a huge garda presence around the area as armed officers and helicopters descended on the house tonight.
Raotath Road, where the house is based, as well as Cappagh Road were on lockdown as gardai swarmed the area from around 7pm on Saturday evening.
The premises has been raided on numerous occasions over the past few weeks as gardai deploy tactics aimed at targeting alleged gangland activity.
A source said: “This part of a regular thing now. They’ve hit them every weekend for last few weeks.”
No arrests or seizures were reported.
