Footage emerged in April of thugs attacking young girls as they ran to the train to make their way home. The CCTV footage showed a number of delinquents kicking and appearing to spit right in the face of a number of girls as they tried to get around the boys and their bikes on a platform near Howth Dart Station on April 1st.
Horrifically, one of the girls actually fell off the platform and appeared to bang heavily on the ground right underneath the train.
Thankfully her friends and a number of men, who appeared to be working at the Station, came to her aid and pulled her back up.
On Thursday morning, three boys were arrested in relation to the attack at Howth Dart Station in April that saw the young girl fall underneath a train.
The despicable incident saw a group of boys circling the platform on bikes.
A group of young girls ran onto the platform to catch a Dart when one of the boys kicked her and she fell. A second girl was spat on and a third girl was so terrified that she stepped off the platform to get away from the thugs and fell under a train.
The attack happened on April 1st at 9pm, with gardai making three arrests of boys aged between 13 and 16, seizing their phones, bikes and some clothing.
Over social media user said:
“Luckily the CCTV managed to catch the thugs with some sort of justice likely to be handed down if convictions are secure.”
Gardai continue to question the boys in a station in north county Dublin.
Another social media user said:
“The boys’ parents to receive a good custodial sentence given that the brats in the footage are blatantly too young for Mountjoy prision.”
