Man Arrested Over Fire at Conor McGregor Pub Dublin

A man in his 20s has been arrested by An Garda Síochána's Special Detective Unit in connection with a fire at Conor McGregor's Black Forge Inn pub in Dublin, which occurred early on July 25. The fire caused minimal damage and was quickly extinguished by the Dublin Fire Brigade, with no injuries reported. McGregor, who purchased the pub in 2020 and invested heavily in renovations, reassured the public that the pub remains open and unharmed, describing it as 'spotless' despite the incident. This fire follows a previous 2022 attempted petrol bomb attack on the same venue that failed to detonate and caused no damage. The arrested man remains in custody under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act 1984, and Garda officials have not released further comments. Authorities continue to investigate to prevent further attacks and ensure public safety.
