Teen Charged in Dublin Riots | Belfast News

A 19-year-old from Dublin is facing serious charges—including rioting, four counts of burglary at major retailers, and criminal damage to a garda car—following the chaos after the tragic Parnell Square knife attack in November 2023. Though he was just 16 when the alleged crimes occurred, the Director of Public Prosecutions has escalated the case to trial on indictment, meaning he’ll appear before the more powerful Dublin Circuit Criminal Court. He made no response to charges, hasn’t entered a plea, and is expected back in court in September to review evidence before trial. As part of a broader crackdown, dozens others are also being prosecuted for crimes tied to that night’s violence.
