GARDAÍ are investigating a number of incidents including a discharge of a firearm and criminal damage that occurred in a county Clare village on Sunday.
According to a statement from gardaí, a number of people were in the Deerpark area of Ennistymon, in possession of a number of weapons including at least one firearm, shortly after 6pm on Sunday August 23.
