Diesel theft in Nenagh

Gardaí are investigating a theft of diesel from a car in Nenagh last week.

The incident was reported on Stafford St last Tuesday week. It is understood that a number of youths were involved and were disturbed in the course of the incident. Gardaí are warning that offences of this nature are on the increase and motorists need to be vigilant.

A male was arrested following a burglary in a Nenagh housing estate last Thursday. The male was apprehended in town and brought before Nenagh District Court on Friday, where he was charged with burglary and remanded in custody.

Gardaí are appealing for witness information following the theft of a blue-coloured trailer from Shayscross, Toomevara, between Wednesday and Thursday of last week.

Another alert over fraud offences has been issued, as people in the district are continuing to fall victim to elaborate scams. Investment fraud has become a particular problem recently, whereby individuals see investment opportunities online and give their bank details to fraudsters. Gardaí are urging people to be mindful of this type of crime and to report suspicious activity immediately.
