During the search, Gardaí recovered a number of firearms, including two semi automatic pistols, along with ammunition and a replica grenade.
The Army Explosive Ordnance Disposal Service (EODS) attended the scene. A cordon was put in place for a period of time, but the area has since been declared safe.
Two individuals—a male in his 30s and a female in her late 20s—were arrested at the scene. Both are currently detained at a Garda station in Wicklow under Section 30 of the Offences Against the State Act, 1939.
