Garda appeal after alleged abduction of boy, 12, in car

GARDAÍ are investigating the alleged abduction of a 12-year-old boy from outside his home in Galway on Thursday.

The boy was bundled into a car by a man in the passenger seat. He then had his hands tied behind his back, before he was thrown from the car a short distance from his home.

Gardaí are appealing for witnesses to the abduction of the child from his house at Beaghmore, Caherlistrane.
