@todayfm: Irish Times Crime and Security Correspondent, Conor Gallagher joined Matt Cooper to discuss the violent protests that broke out in Coolock today.   Tensions built this morning after construction workers attempted to begin refurbishments on asylum seeker accommodation at the Crown Paints site.   The workers were stopped by protestors and a digger was set on fire. The scene quickly became violent, resulting in the injury of a security guard and damage to a Garda vehicle. A number of arrests have been made and more Garda have been deployed to the scene. #coolock #ireland #dublin
