Irish police have named the three siblings who died in a “violent incident” at a house in Dublin.
Lisa Cash, 18, and her twin siblings Christy and Chelsea Cawley, 8, were found at a property in Rossfield Estate, Tallaght, at about 12.30am.
They were taken to hospital in Crumlin but later pronounced dead.
Police said their mother, in her 40s, has been discharged from hospital, while the victims’ fourteen-year-old brother is still being treated for serious but non-life threatening injuries.
A man in his early 20s arrested at the scene continues to be detained.
Police believe everyone involved knew one another and described the scene as violent, challenging and traumatic.
Post mortems will take place this afternoon and tomorrow.
