It’s understood Mr O’Gorman was left badly shaken following the alleged incident in the Blanchardstown area on Saturday evening
The man, who is in his 30s, was arrested after Mr O’Gorman was allegedly assaulted while out canvassing in his Dublin west constituency.
Mr O’Gorman was not hurt during the incident - but sources say that was because an armed Garda protection officer who was shadowing him intervened. Gardai confirmed on Sunday that a man had been arrested over the alleged attack on Mr O’Gorman, although the force did not identify the politician.
