“Thank you to the public for their assistance,” Gardai added.

Meanwhile, last week, Gardai in Edenderry made an appeal for the public’s assistance regarding the theft of a vehicle on Thursday, March 8, between 3:30am and 3:40am.

During the raid a black Nissan Qashqai “142-OY” registered 4X4 was stolen from Meadow Court Daingean.

It was subsequently seen travelling in convoy with a black BMW X5 jeep. The Qashqai had a glass roof, according to Gardai.
