Conor McGregor’s £2million Dublin pub has been ‘attacked with petrol bombs’ just hours after the UFC star was at the venue, according to reports. 

The Black Forge Inn, in Drimnagh Road, was apparently ‘targetted’ at some point during the night of January 12.

Fortunately, no one was harmed in the alleged incident. However, officials are believed to have discovered petrol bombs at the scene.

A Dublin Live source has claimed that two men were seen heading towards the venue on a scooter. Individuals inside the pub reportedly chased the pair away.

This same insider has also alleged that McGregor had visited The Black Forge Inn the same very day and he supposedly took part in a ‘taste testing menu’.

The source reportedly said: “There was two people allegedly spotted on scooters who passed the establishment at the time and next thing they were being chased by two others who had come out of the property.

“McGregor had been holding a taste testing menu in the pub at the same time so the alleged attackers may have assumed he was inside.”

The Gardai, which is the national police service of the Republic of Ireland, is reportedly investigating the incident and is believed to be looking for witnesses to come forward.

The police apparently told Dublin Live: “Gardai are investigating an incident of attempted criminal damage at a licenced premises on the Drimnagh Road.

“No damage was done to the premises. Gardai are appealing for witnesses in relation to this incident is asked to contact Gardai.

“Gardai are particularly keen for anyone with camera footage from the area overnight to make this available to them.”
