Ireland Gardaí appeal for witnesses after South Kilkenny farm burglary
Gardaí are investigating a farmyard burglary in South Kilkenny, reported in two Kilkenny People articles published on 19 September 2024. The first report says the injured party's garage at Ballymountain, Kilmacow, was broken into between 8.30am and 1.30pm on Thursday 12 September 2024, and that gardening equipment and tools were stolen. The second report describes a shed door forced open on a Wednesday and a number of items taken, and it does not name a location beyond South Kilkenny. No suspect has been named, arrested or charged, and the latest development is gardaí in Kilmacow and Mooncoin appealing to the public for information and CCTV or dashcam footage.
