Gardai rush to scene of west Dublin brawl between construction workers

Gardai rushed to the scene of a brawl involving construction workers that broke out on a site in west Dublin yesterday morning.

The incident on a site on the Powerstown Road in Tyrrelstown saw two men allegedly assaulted although no-one was arrested following the scrap. Footage from the scene taken at around 10am yesterday morning shows a number of people fighting on the site with what appears to be a metal bar being used in the attack.

A person can be heard shouting "leave it, leave it" in the distance as other rush to try and break up the incident. Dublin Live understands that one of the men assaulted was left with injuries to their nose.
