Six people were arrested after a crowd outside the CityWest Hotel near Dublin hurled bricks, bottles and fireworks at police and set a van ablaze, Ireland’s national force said Wednesday. One officer suffered a foot injury. Hundreds, many waving Irish tricolor flags, had gathered Tuesday evening in Saggart following reports of a sexual assault. Some tried to charge the police line with horse-drawn carts as officers used pepper spray. Police Commissioner Justin Kelly condemned “thuggery,” and Prime Minister Micheál Martin said there was “no justification.”
