On Wednesday 18 February 2026, between 1:40pm and 1:50pm, an e-scooter was stolen from an apartment block on Pearse Road in Letterkenny, County Donegal. Gardaí are seeking two male teenagers, described as being in their early teens and wearing black bottoms and black coats with hoods up, and have asked motorists with dash-cam footage from the area to come forward. The victim is not named or described in the reports, and no nationality is given for the two males sought. The first report, published by Donegal Live on 24 February 2026, was an appeal for information, and no arrest or charge has been reported, so that appeal is the latest development.
