A shopping basket was reportedly thrown at staff, but nobody was injured.

A man in his 30s was located nearby a short time later.

According to gardaí, the man refused to provide his name and resisted arrest "while threatening to cough on members stating he had the coronavirus".

He was arrested and taken to Pearse Street Garda Station, and has since been charged in relation to the incident.

He's due to appear before the Criminal Courts of Justice tomorrow morning.
