In total, 14 people - nine adults and five juveniles - were arrested for public order offences and detained at Pearse Street and Kevin Street Garda Stations. Six were charged with public order offences and released, two people received an adult caution while one was released pending a summons for public order offences. The owner of a popular hair salon on South William Street has equated the crowds gathering and drinking there to a music festival. 14 people were arrested for public order offences in the South inner city last night and a Garda required hospital treatment for injuries.
