Officers seized a large quantity of weapons in Friday’s raids including baseball bats, slashhooks and pitchforks
Men armed with baseball bats attacked another man as he ran behind a sweet counter in a Supervalu store in Hollyhill, Cork.
The five, four men in their 20s and a teenager, were all arrested under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act which allows gardaí detain suspects for up to 24 hours and the five suspects are being questioned at Gurranebraher, Mayfield and Togher garda stations. Both feuding factions have issued challenges to the other side which they have posted online including one member of one faction revving up a chainsaw in a car and threatening to cut the limbs of members of the other faction as he is driven around the city.
