A man has been arrested in Limerick in connection with the discovery of a body two weeks ago.

A garda investigation is continuing into the death and disappearance of Limerick man Francie Green.

Gardaí say a body found on the banks of the Shannon yesterday could be that of a missing Limerick man.

Gardaí have released a man who was being questioned in connection with the disappearance of a 48-year old man in Limerick last year.
