A man was stabbed in the leg following a brawl with a group of men on Friday afternoon.
Gardai rushed to the scene of the stabbing in Dublin’s Marigold Park in Darndale shortly before 1pm.
The victim was taken to Beaumont Hospital for treatment after sustaining a stab wound to the leg, Dublin Live reports.
He was injured after an altercation with a number of other men in the area but his injuries are not thought to be life-threatening.
Gardai say the scene has been preserved for examination and no arrests have been made yet but enquiries are ongoing.
The area - which has also been the scene of two separate brutal killings in the past, Jordan Davis and John Lawless, has been closed off as Gardai deal with the incident.
Frightened locals have been watching on for the last hour as officers carry out their investigation, appealing to any witnesses to come forward with information.
A Garda spokesman told the Irish Mirror: “Shortly before 1pm a male in his 30s sustained injuries during an altercation with a number of other males in the Marigold Park, Darndale.
“He was taken by ambulance to Beaumont Hospital for treatment for apparent leg injuries. It’s understood he sustained a stab wound to his leg.
“His injuries are not thought to be life threatening.
“The scene is preserved for examination. No arrests have been made to date enquiries are ongoing.”
