A Glenvar man is offering a reward to anyone with information following a case of criminal damage on his land.
Colin Lynch made the appeal after finding damage to a twelve-foot sheep gate, two strainers on his property ripped out as well as damage to a stone wall which borders the land on Tuesday evening.
Mr Lynch contacted gardaí who attended the scene and said they would investigate but advised him, unless there were witnesses to incident, there was little they could do at the present time.
“Mr Lynch said: “This is the first time that my property has been damaged in this way and I am very concerned about it.
“I would appeal for anyone who may have seen anything related to the incident, or the incident itself to please contact gardaí with any information you have and, if the information leads to a successful prosecution of the perpetrator, I am happy to give a €1,000 reward.”
A gardaí spokesperson confirmed that ‘a report was received on Tuesday, October 29 of damage to a gate in Glenvar.
“No further information is available.”
