Gardaí are appealing for witnesses after an arson attack at a house in Blanchardstown, Dublin yesterday morning.

Two people were in the home at the time but managed to escape uninjured.

Investigators are on the hunt for four men they believe were behind the attack at Westway View.

A bucket of petrol was reportedly poured through a window of the house and set alight during the attack, which is believed to be linked to an ongoing feud in west Dublin.

Gardaí said all four suspects were wearing dark clothing with hooded jumpers and tracksuit bottoms.

They fled the scene on foot towards a green area leading to Sheephill Avenue.

Investigators are calling for any witnesses in the Westway and Corduff areas that may have seen anything unusual between 11.15am and 11.45am this morning to contact them.
