The Defence Forces bomb disposal team have been called to Trump Doonbeg Golf Links & Hotel in Co Clare after a suspicious package was found.
It is understood that the army, fire brigade and gardaí were all alerted to the incident this afternoon after the discovery of a package with white powder.
A garda spokesperson said: “We are currently dealing with an ongoing incident at a premises in West Clare. There will be no further comment at this time.”
The resort is part of US president Donald Trump’s hospitality business.
The president’s son Eric made a private visit to the resort earlier this week before travelling to the World Economic Forum in Davos.
