SEVERAL OFFENSIVE WEAPONS have been seized by Revenue during raid on a home in Clare.

A private house in the Kilmihil area was searched in an operation carried out with gardaí earlier today.

It was prompted by the attempted importation of stun guns through the post.

It has now led to the seizure of weapons, some of which are pictured above, including stun guns, nunchucks, knuckle dusters, extendable batons, a flick knife and an air pistol.

A garda investigation is ongoing.
