Train services in north Dublin have resumed following disruption after a man was stabbed on board a service to Drogheda.
A spokeswoman for the Garda said the incident occurred between Killester and Harmonstown on the 9.40pm Pearse to Drogheda service.
A spokesman for Iarnród Éireann earlier said there were reports of a “serious altercation” on board the train, which was stopped north of Killester Dart station.
“Gardaí are attending,” he said. “Trains are stopped in both directions at the moment. We can’t move trains through as gardaí are on the line.”
