Delivery riders in Dublin say they're afraid of being attacked every day they go to work.

Last Friday night a Deliveroo worker was assaulted in Temple Bar following an altercation with a group of people.

The company has condemned the attack and says it's launched an urgent review into the incident.

Gardaí are also investigating the assault which happened at around 11pm on Friday.

Delivery rider Nathaniel says people try to rob his bike every day:

"I'm afraid working in the streets because I see every time they are attacking us.

"It's not just physical, they try to steal our bike every time.

So it's very hard to keep our bike outside and go inside to get the food."
