Balbriggan, County Dublin last Sunday
This morning.
Further to the house fire in Balbriggan, County Dublin blamed by some as a racially-motivated, gang-related arson attack..
Jakub Zarkowsk on Gofundme writes:
My very close friend Dare lost his house on August the 9 to a fire. The news and media is making it out to be some sort of gang related incident. Honestly it has nothing to do with that. This was a complete accident.
Thankfully his mother and sister weren’t home, his step dad and little brother were in the house at the time but made it out safely. Thank god there all safe but they left behind everything in that house. Any help (at link below) would be greatly appreciated thank you.
€5,030 to date.

As much as what happened yesterday in Balbriggan is a disgrace, it’s not an excuse for racism or hate towards immigrants or their children! The culprits should be caught and punished like anyone else but hate and racism are only going to make it worse #Balbriggan pic.twitter.com/NNdz1QdEU6
