The attack in Ballyfermot has led to renewed calls from Garda representatives for the immediate rollout of bodycams for officers.
The AGSI says Gardaí are waiting too long for introduction of body cameras it comes as Garda HQ recently revealed that it will be 2024 before the body cams are issued.
A former assistant Garda commissioner says putting body-cams on Gardaí is a better option than arming them with tasers.
Pat Leahy says the technology will help protect officers and the public.
