A man is being questioned today over an armed raid last night on a house in west Dublin in which a number of shots were fired.
A Garda spokesman said two men broke into the house at Virginia Heights, Blessington Road, Tallaght, and threatened a couple and their two adult sons.
The raiders demanded money before firing a number of shots and then fled empty-handed. There were no injuries reported.
A man in his 30s was later arrested near the scene and a shotgun, a pistol and a balaclava were recovered. The man is being held at Tallaght Garda Station
