Canal search for missing teenager to resume today

THE search for the body of a teenager missing since last weekend will resume this morning.

Members of the garda sub-aqua unit and the garda dog unit will continue their hunt along the banks of the Grand Canal for the body of 18-year-old David White, from Carrickmore Avenue in Citywest, Dublin. A divisional search team will also take part.

The body of Mr White’s 18-year-old friend Shane Coughlan, was recovered from the canal on Wednesday. Mr Coughlan, of Millpark, Clondalkin, is the younger brother of Sheffield Wednesday player Graham Coughlan.
