He is currently being held at a Garda station in the Dublin region.

Over 50 people have previously been arrested in connection with the Dublin riots, during which Garda vehicles, a Luas tram and several Dublin busses were set alight at a cost of millions to the State.

The riots followed a stabbing incident on Parnell Square earlier that day that resulted in injuries to three children and a care assistant.

An Garda Síochána is asking for anyone with information on the events of that day to contact them.
