The Aer Lingus College Football Classic clash between Georgia Tech and Florida State University took place at the stadium on the date in question.

A drone was flown over the pitch during the game. It was then recovered and seized by gardaí.

As part of the investigations, gardaí attached to DMR South Central Detective Units assisted by the Garda National Cyber Crime Bureau conducted a search of a house in the Dublin area this morning, and seized electronic devices.
