The sheer scale of the dumping led Redmond to believe it was a targeted act, calling the act “malicious” and “sheer evil.” He noted the danger posed to both children and animals in the area, who could easily have been injured by the hazardous waste. 

The incident is currently being investigated by the Gardaí, who have confirmed that they have received a report on it. The situation has left the community shocked and concerned about the potential health risks, as efforts continue to ensure the park remains a safe environment for local residents.
