Gardaí investigating a hoax bomb alert at the home of the journalist Mr Paul Williams have tonight arrested a woman in connection with the incident.
The woman was arrested in Foxrock this evening and is being detained under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act 1984 in Sundrive Road garda station. She is the third person arrested over the hoax bomb today.
She can be held for 12 hours after which she must be either released or charged.
Two men, aged 24 and 21, who were arrested in Crumlin this morning have been released. A file is being prepared for the DPP.
Mr Williams and his family, along with about 140 other residents, were evacuated from their homes in Walkinstown, early on the morning of November 14th after a device was spotted under Mr Williams's car.
Army bomb-disposal experts found the device did not contain explosives - but had been constructed to look like a car bomb.
