Four people, three females and one unidentified male survived the incident and are being treated at Grey's Hospital.
It is alleged that two men entered the tavern shortly after 9 pm before ordering people to get out.

The bodies of the six victims were found inside after the fire was extinguished.
No arrests have been made and the motive for the attack is unknown at this stage.
Police are investigating a case of arson, murder and attempted murder.
