A Dublin librarian was left bleeding on the ground after a reckless gang kids tried to storm their way in after being kicked out.
An ambulance was called after the woman in her 50s was left with a nasty head injury after the kids as young as NINE ran riot in Ballyfermot Library.
The gang of feral pre-teens were then asked to leave, and after being barricaded out they attempted to force their way back, knocking the poor librarian to the ground.
