Writing’s on the wall for sign thief who stole shop front signs, say gardaí

SIGNS over shops in Killarney, Co Kerry, have been damaged and letters from the wording of the signs have been stolen.

Gardaí in the town confirmed yesterday they were investigating what they believe are acts of vandalism rather than just theft.

“The people who did this had to go to a certain amount of trouble as they had to find some way of reaching the signs, some of which are more than 10 feet above ground level,” a garda spokesman said.
