A number of objects - including shoes and eggs - were thrown, at Tony Blair, as he entered Easons bookshop on O'Connell Street to sign copies of his recently published autobiography. According to reports all thrown items missed their target.
Four young men were arrested during minor scuffles between police and the anti-war protesters they have since been released and are due to appear in court later in the month.
Mr Blair left the shop at 12.30pm after signing copies of his book for over two hours. The clashes that marked his arrival were not repeated as he departed.
However, protestors did shout abuse at hundreds of customers as they left the store with their newly-signed books.
All proceeds from the book, A Journey, will go to the Royal British Legion.
