Three officers hurt and 24 arrested during disorder in Dublin

BBC:

Three Irish police officers have been injured and 24 people arrested in a second night of disorder outside a hotel used to house asylum seekers in Dublin.

Stones and fireworks were thrown at police, with one injured officer being struck in the head with a bottle and the other suffering an arm injury.

Disorder broke out at the site following an initially peaceful protest over the alleged sexual assault of a young girl in the vicinity in the early hours of Monday morning.

Of the 24 arrests, 17 adults have been charged with public order offences and are due to appear before the Criminal Courts of Justice in Dublin on Thursday.
