''That sort of carry on is absolutely disgusting''.
Footage of anti-mask protesters on the Luas red line yesterday evening has been handed over to gardaí.
Luas operator Transdev says the video is high quality and has been shared with gardaí to assist them with their investigation.
The footage was captured last night and shows anti-mask protesters chanting and harassing other passengers.

Gardaí say they're aware of the incident.
TD Neale Richmond has described it as disgraceful.
''Even if we weren't at the height of the world's largest pandemic for over a century, that sort of carry on is absolutely disgusting'', he said.
''The language used, the boorishness, you're on public transport...
''Then you bring in the act they weren't wearing masks, they were taunting, they were coming from yet another one of these rallies that we seem to see on a weekly basis outside the Daíl, it's the same group of people''.
