Gardaí probe botched arson attack on Charleville store

GARDAÍ in Cork are appealing for information about a botched arson attack on a former boutique and a separate raid on a craft shop.

In north Cork, the raid on the craft shop netted the thief a substantial amount of gold jewellery. In West Cork, gold and jewellery worth thousands of euro was stolen from a craft store on the Mizen peninsula.

The attempted arson attack was in Charleville, Co Cork, in what was formerly O’Shea’s boutique.
