Two men and teenager charged over attempted murder of woman set on fire in Clondalkin

TWO MEN AND a teenager who were arrested on suspicion of the attempted murder of a woman who was set on fire at a house in Clondalkin have been charged.

The woman was this week named by gardaí as Alexis Campion.

She continues to recover from her injuries in hospital following the serious assault on 25 November, 2025.

It’s suspected that Alexis, who survived but suffered serious burn injuries, was not the intended target of the attack, and that it was a case of drug gang intimidation.

It’s understood that she was sprayed with an accelerant and then lit on fire.

A man who was also in the house at the time of the incident suffered non-life threatening injuries.

A high intensity policing operation was carried out by over 100 members of An Garda Síochana on Tuesday morning.

A total of 19 properties were searched in the Clondalkin and Ballyfermot areas.

Gardaí seized a number of items during the operation, including drugs worth an estimated €2,000.

In addition, Gardaí seized 2 e-scooters and 13 electronic devices of evidential value.

Gardaí also arrested three men – one in his 30s, one in his 40s, and an adult teenager – on suspicion of attempted murder.

They have since been charged and are expected to appear before the Criminal Courts of Justice tomorrow morning.

A garda spokesperson said investigations are ongoing.
