Six people have been arrested after violence broke out at large protest outside an accommodation centre for international protection applicants at Citywest   

 Around 2,000 people attended the protest, but shortly afterwards hooded and masked men threw missiles and fireworks at gardaí, vandalised the Luas stop and a garda van was set on fire.
