A 16-year-old boy has been stabbed to death in the north inner city.
A row broke out at around nine o’clock last night in East Wall.
Gardaí were called to the scene at around 9:20pm last night following reports of a public order incident.
Two teenage boys were taken to the Mater Hospital and one of them – a 16 year old – has since passed away, he had been stabbed.
A third male presented himself to the Mater later on.
Gardaí are asking anyone with information to contact Store Street Garda Station or any garda station.
Concerns about a rise in knife crime in the area had been raised at a Dublin City Joint Policing Committee just yesterday.
