Red Wall Gang

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Red Wall Gang was a drug dealing/joyriding gang that operated in the Cherry Orchard area of Ballyfermot in west Dublin from the late 1980s to the mid-1990s.[1] By 1995, the red wall around which they gathered was a major hub in Ireland's illegal drug trade.[1] They are known for the area's 1995 Halloween riots.[1]
