    Conor McGregor is reportedly under investigation by the Irish police for allegedly inciting hate in the Dublin riots.<\/p>\n

    Disorder broke out in Ireland's capital last week after a stabbing incident outside a primary school, which saw three young children injured, including a five-year-old girl who was left in a critical condition.<\/p>\n

    UFC star McGregor condemned the response of Garda chief Drew Harris and his country's government in a series of social media posts which the Irish Mirror claim he's being investigated for.<\/p>\n

    The 35-year-old wrote on X, formerly Twitter, "you reap what you sow" after last Thursday's (November 23) attack and called for reform. He also urged: "Announce our plan of action!! <\/p>\n

    "What are we waiting for? Your statements of nothing are absolutely worthless to the solving of this issue. Take Action!! Fix this situation IMMEDIATELY!"<\/p>\n

    After that night's shocking scenes, which saw around 500 people rioting, McGregor insisted he didn't support that course of action.<\/p>\n

    Responding to a suggestion he should hold his own "freedom march" by Britain First leader Paul Golding, he wrote: "I do not condone last nights riots. I do not condone any attacks on our first responders in their line of duty. <\/p>\n

    "I do not condone looting and the damaging of shops. Last nights scenes achieved nothing toward fixing the issues we face. I do understand frustrations however, and I do understand a move must be made to ensure the change we need is ushered in. <\/p>\n

    "And fast! I am in the process of arranging. Believe me I am way more tactical and I have backing. There will be change in Ireland, mark my words. The change needed. In the last month, innocent children stabbed leaving school. <\/p>\n

    "Ashling Murphy murdered. Two Sligo men decapitated. This is NOT Ireland\u2019s future! If they do not act soon with their plan of action to ensure Ireland\u2019s safety, I will."<\/p>\n

    McGregor is believed to be under investigation as part of a wider official criminal probe, with police looking into the stabbing, the riots and social media commentary suspected of inciting hate.<\/p>\n
