Gardaí appeal for information after burglary in Killeigh, Co Offaly

A burglary took place at a home in Ballinvalley, Killeigh, Tullamore, Co Offaly, on Monday evening, between 4pm and 4.30pm according to the Offaly Express, with a number of items taken and the house understood to have been ransacked. The victim and any suspect are not named in the articles. Tullamore Gardaí appealed for information about the burglary and a black Audi A3 and its occupants seen in the area, and asked for dashcam footage, as reported by both articles on 22 August 2023. The articles report no arrest or charge, so the latest development is the Garda appeal.
