A young woman will face charges today before a court in connection with the discovery of explosives during a garda raid of a home.

Two pipe bombs, a shotgun, ammunition and drugs were seized during the search at Barry Park, Finglas, in north Dublin, last Friday.

The 22-year-old woman arrested during the operation is expected to appear before Dublin District Court on charges linked to the finds.

Army bomb disposal experts were called in to deal with the explosive devices at the time.

Cocaine and herbal cannabis believed to have a street value of €10,000 was sent to the Garda Technical Bureau for forensic analysis.

The woman was being held at Finglas garda station under Section 2 of the Drug Trafficking Act.
