A Dublin pub owned by Conor McGregor was reportedly targeted on Wednesday night
Conor McGregor’s Black Forge Inn is at the center of a police investigation amid reports that petrol bombs were thrown at the premises hours after the Irishman was said to be inside the venue.
Local media states that two men were seen approaching the pub on a motorbike in the Drimnagh area of the Irish capital shortly before the alleged bombing attempt, which is understood to have occurred after McGregor was hosting a private event inside.
The pub was closed to the public at the time amid Irish governmental Covid regulations which state that pubs and restaurants must shut temporarily their doors at 8pm.

“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,” Dublin Live quoted an unnamed source as saying.
“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.”
