Woman left in 'shock' after being followed home by gang and targeted with water gun

A woman has been left "in shock" after a gang followed her in a car while she was walking home from work and targeted her with a water gun.

Aunchan Reynolds was making her way home from work when a car stopped beside her on Marrsfield Avenue in Clongriffin at around 7:30pm yesterday.

The gang inside asked her for directions but then proceeded to "shoot at her" with a water gun.

Aunchan's husband Des said the gang recorded and followed her during the incident.

"They said can you give directions to Donaghmede. She stood on the footpath and tried to explain directions," he said.

"Then they laugh and point the water gun and shoot at her and all of them laugh.

"One girl sitting beside the driver recorded her on her phone.

"She was in shock. They then followed her and said 'thank you for your directions'".

Dublin Live has contacted An Garda Siochana for comment.
