Robotic lawnmower stolen from Letterkenny garden

A green Parkside robotic lawnmower was stolen from a garden in the Ballymacool area of Letterkenny, Co Donegal, between 8pm on Saturday 2 May and noon on Sunday 3 May 2026. The reporting does not name the owner or any suspect. Donegal Live published the first report on 5 May 2026, carrying a Garda appeal to anyone who saw suspicious activity in the area during those times to contact Letterkenny Gardaí on 074-9167100. No arrest, charge, court appearance or sentence is reported, so the appeal for information is the latest development.
