Emergency services have dealt with a fire at a children's playground in Sandymount for the second time.
It happened at half eleven last night at Sean Moore Park.
Nobody was injured and investigations are ongoing. The playground cost one million euro to build.
Local Fine Gael James Geoghegan councillor says they may have to install CCTV in the area to catch those responsible. He said ''It sounds a terrible idea that we would have to introduce CCTV in the area but we have to find these culprits, arrest them and charge them. Because, it can't keep going on.....it's a really top quality playground that kids are coming along and setting it on fire. It's just disgraceful.''
