Two men have been injured following a stabbing in north Dublin.

It happened following a funeral in the area yesterday.

Gardaí remain here at the scene on Quarry Road in Cabra this morning following the assault.

It is understood two men were seriously injured after a fight broke out at around 8pm last night.

Large crowds were in the area following the funeral of Brandon Ledwidge.

The 23-year-old from Finglas was shot dead earlier this month.

Locals say there was a lot of noise and commotion last night following the funeral reception in a nearby pub.

One local man said the area is quiet, and nicknamed 'Coronation Street' because of the amount of older residents, but that it was different last night.

"I noticed a fight in the pub and then they came outside the pub," he said.

"I was looking at hundreds running up and down the road; girls, young kids".

Another man said he saw it unfold.

"Two guys were walking avery fast away from the pub and followed by a group of people," he said.

"It looked like it was a heated argument, then it stopped outside a house and a fight broke out.

"There was absolute mayhem; digs, punches, glasses, fecking wheel braces - everything - from one or two individuals.

"Quite scary for the people in the area," he added.

The scene remains sealed off this morning pending a technical exam.
