Two children were robbed and assaulted by a gang of thugs in a park in a horrible morning incident in Dublin.

The couple, both 18, were attacked and items stolen by the gang in Porterstown Park next to St. Mochta Church Sunday around 4:30 a.m.

Gardai issued an appeal when a manhunt was launched to find the vicious group behind the double assault.

There is already a vital piece in the terror attack that Gardai believes could help catch the attackers as they seek information on “a dark hatchback car that was parked outside the Porterstown Park parking lot.”
