A man in his 20's and a woman in her 30's have been arrested for the possession of multiple firearms and ammunition.
This Friday afternoon, February 16, gardaí attached to the Blanchardstown District stopped a car on the Old Navan Road in Dublin 15.
The two occupants of the car were found to be in possession of a pistol and ammunition. The firearm and ammunition were seized by investigating Gardaí.
The man and woman were subsequently arrested at the scene and are currently detained at an unnamed garda station in Dublin.
Follow-up searches were conducted at two addresses in the Dublin region the same evening and the following morning, where two more firearms were seized by investigating gardaí.
During these searches, gardaí found a submachine gun, sawn-off shotgun, as well as ammunition.
All three seized firearms and ammunition are subject to analysis. Investigations are ongoing.
