Gardaí in Kilmihil are renewing their appeal for information following the theft of an Ifor Williams horsebox a number of weeks ago.

The horsebox, worth several thousand euro, was taken from a yard at Crown, Lissycasey overnight on February 25, last.

"This horsebox was stolen sometime between 9pm on Tuesday, February 25 and 5pm the following day," said crime prevention officer Sergeant Catriona Holohan who added that the stolen property should be easy to recognise.

"The horsebox is unique in that it has damage to both sides of the box and there was a sheet of steel welded onto both sides. This makes this Ifor Williams horsebox easy to identify," she stated.

Similarly, anybody who may have information in relation to the location of the horsebox is asked to come forward.
