Dublin Fire Brigade have had a very busy 24 hours with raging gorse fires in the Dublin Mountains last night near Sandyford.

And just a short while ago they rushed to the scene of a fire at a playground in North Dublin.
As you can see below, the fire was alight in the Hill Street playground, just off Parnell Street.
Unfortunately we’ve had to attend a fire set in a playground on Hill Street. One pump fire. @DubCityCouncil pic.twitter.com/FHOSbmRMzx

People are not impressed with what's being described as "mindless vandalism".
Terrible waste of time & Money , mindless vandalism
