Gardaí seek help to crack theft case

GARDAÍ were last night trying to crack the case of a gang who swiped a safe full of wages from an egg and poultry factory.

The gang broke into Shannonvale Food processors in Clonakilty, Co Cork, sometime between 11pm and 5.30am on Wednesday night and ransacked several offices.

They lifted a heavy 4ft by 4ft Chubb safe onto a hand-truck and wheeled it into the back of one of the company’s unbranded, white, refrigerated Volkwagen vans before making off towards Cork city.
